Nathan,
llvm-3.1 (Ubuntu 12.10 stock verison) was what gave the bad code I
mentioned previously (see below).
Note: llvm can be very easily built from source. The location of llc and
friends is detected by GHC's configure.
llvm-3.2 gives this code, which looks correct:
00000000 :
0: e594608c ldr r6, [r4, #140] ; 0x8c
4: e3a03000 mov r3, #0
8: e596600c ldr r6, [r6, #12]
c: e596500c ldr r5, [r6, #12]
10: e584309c str r3, [r4, #156] ; 0x9c
14: e286b064 add fp, r6, #100 ; 0x64
18: e5942094 ldr r2, [r4, #148] ; 0x94
1c: e892000a ldm r2, {r1, r3}
20: e592201c ldr r2, [r2, #28]
24: e0812602 add r2, r1, r2, lsl #12
28: e2436004 sub r6, r3, #4
2c: e2422001 sub r2, r2, #1
30: e5842084 str r2, [r4, #132] ; 0x84
34: e5950000 ldr r0, [r5]
38: e1a0e00f mov lr, pc
3c: e1a0f000 mov pc, r0
40: e1a0f00e mov pc, lr
llvm-3.0 gives near identical code (slight variation in instruction order):
00000000 :
0: e594608c ldr r6, [r4, #140] ; 0x8c
4: e3a03000 mov r3, #0
8: e596600c ldr r6, [r6, #12]
c: e596500c ldr r5, [r6, #12]
10: e584309c str r3, [r4, #156] ; 0x9c
14: e286b064 add fp, r6, #100 ; 0x64
18: e5942094 ldr r2, [r4, #148] ; 0x94
1c: e892000a ldm r2, {r1, r3}
20: e592201c ldr r2, [r2, #28]
24: e0812602 add r2, r1, r2, lsl #12
28: e2422001 sub r2, r2, #1
2c: e2436004 sub r6, r3, #4
30: e5842084 str r2, [r4, #132] ; 0x84
34: e5950000 ldr r0, [r5]
38: e1a0e00f mov lr, pc
3c: e1a0f000 mov pc, r0
40: e1a0f00e mov pc, lr
Unfortunately llvm-3.2 doesn't quite work. I get this error:

You are using a new version of LLVM that hasn't been tested yet!
We will try though...

(llvm-3.0 gave a vaguely similar error).
So, the best option looks like to use llvm-3.2 and fix anything that
isn't working.

Nathan,
My GHC-iOS is based on HEAD from about November 2012.
The register that's used for base is defined in includes/stg/MachRegs.h
and is meant to be r4. This has never changed since the ARM work was
done. This is likely to be new breakage.
One possibility: There are certain versions of llvm that break with GHC
and ARM. llvm-3.0 is known to work. I believe this has been fixed since
(so new llvm-version should work), but I haven't confirmed it.
Looking at the cmm source for stg_returnToStackTop, the use of r0 looks
wrong because the comment says it's not using C arguments. r0-r3 are not
callee-saves and r0 is normally a C call argument and return value.
I just did a compile for Emdebian Linux (but haven't run any generated
code yet), and I'm getting almost the same as you:

On the iPhone I get this:

A comparison strongly supports your idea that it's using r0 when it
should be using r4.
I am going to try some different versions of llvm.

Hey,
I am currently trying to get a ghc cross compiler for android linux to
work.
I am basing this on the development version (HEAD). I succeeded building
the compiler. Unfortunately, the executables produced by the compiler
segfault on my android device.
If I do an unregisterised build, it works!
Since the iphone is also an arm platform, I was hoping someone here
could help me a little bit.
I investigate the problem a little bit (see this thread:
http://www.haskell.org/pipermail/ghc-devs/2013-January/000013.html) and
I am guessing (I am no expert) that it is an arm problem, not android.
It seems like the wrong register is used for base (r0 instead of r4).
* On which ghc version is the iphone fork based?
* Are there any arm fixes in the iphone fork that could be related to
this?
Thank you!
Nathan
