Hi,

find ghc's generated settings file. What FPU is used there?

Thanks,

Thanks for the advice; However, it had little effect.

I now have the errors:

Anyone else building GHC on a pi?

Thanks, using LLVM 3.1 seems to have improved the siutation, but I'm
running into a new error.

Here is the error I get when trying to build GHC 7.6.1 from 7.4.1

I get similar errors when building GHC 7.4.1 (patched with
http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/attachment/ticket/5914/0001-add-support-for-ARM-hard-float-ABI-fixes-5914.patch).


Any of you encountered this problem before?


Yeah, I had a lot of these. The problem was that GHC has a lot of
different "CFLAGS",
so finding the right way to pass "-float-abi=hard" to every one of
them took some time, but
eventually I ended up with the following change to mk/build.mk:

ifeq "$(BuildFlavour)" "quick"

SRC_HC_OPTS = -H64m -O0 -fasm
GhcStage1HcOpts = -O -fasm
GhcStage2HcOpts = -O0 -fasm
GhcLibHcOpts = -O -fasm -optlc-float-abi=hard
SplitObjs = NO
HADDOCK_DOCS = NO
BUILD_DOCBOOK_HTML = NO
BUILD_DOCBOOK_PS = NO
BUILD_DOCBOOK_PDF = NO

endif

(Change the build flavor you are using, of course)

And I ran configure as:

LDFLAGS="-marm -mfloat-abi=hard -mfpu=vfp" CFLAGS="-marm
-mfloat-abi=hard -mfpu=vfp" ./configure --with-opt=/usr/bin/opt-3.1
--with-llc=/usr/bin/llc-3.1 --with-ld=`which ld.gold`

(I switched to the gold linker, because ld was running out of RAM often.)

I did eventually finish building stage2, but the final executable
segfaulted on start.
I haven't investigated much why that happened, the days it takes to
rebuild it just
made me give up.

Hope this helps,
Thijs
