Re: [Haskell-cafe] GHCI on ARM (Nvidia Jetson TK1)

Hi There, I would like to ask you what is the situation with ghci on arm.

GHCi should be functional. As of 7.6.3 (IIRC) the GHC runtime linker has had support for ARM, although it is known to be buggy in some cases. More recently there has been a push to move towards dynamic linking by default. This removes GHC's runtime linker from the equation although introduces some difficulties of its own (mostly due to bugs in binutil's linker [1). A few months back I wrote down some notes on the current state of GHC on ARM [2]. This might answer some of your questions.
