Hi,

today I migrated to a new machine at work, a nice and fast dual-core 64 bit box. Building COLA works fine as long as only idc is concerned; building jolt blows up (obviously):

-----
cp: cannot stat 'CodeGenerator-x86_64.st': No such file or directory

I found an e-mail from Martin McClure saying that he was working on code generation support for x86_64 (in August). Has there been some progress?

Is there *any* way for me to make it work (32 bit chroots aside)? Please don't say I have to implement the code generation myself, I don't quite feel competent. ;-)

Hi Michael,

So far, I've made very small progress on the x86-64 code generator (limited mostly by lack of time to work on it). I'm still interested in moving forward with this.

Since all of my machines are x86_64, when not working on the code generator I've been working in 32-bit chroots, which seems to work well in general. The exception is jolt. It ran into problems with execution permission not being set on the memory into which it was placing the generated code. I got jolt2 to work using the patch I posted in the "Fix for CPUs with execution protection" thread on November 3. There are also other suggested fixes in that thread.

Regards,

-Martin
