Trying to build 64 bit GHC on Windows with the 32 bit version

2014-04-06 Thread Niculae Ionita
Hi, I got yesterday the sources (HEAD) of GHC and configured with ./configure --target=amd64-unknown-mingw32 which finally succeeded. But when I start make, I get almost in the beginning this error message: ===--- building phase 0 make -r --no-print-directory -f ghc.mk phase=0 phase_0_builds

Trac seems to think I'm a spambot...?

Perf tests failing

2014-04-06 Thread Simon Peyton Jones
Several perf tests have started failing on 32-bit windows. (See below). Some of them have very small allocation anyway, so it may be a library issue. I'm wondering whether it might be a consequence of the new inline byte array stuff. I don't know which commit made this start happening, but

I don't have a 32-bit machine to test on, but I thought I set the InlineByteArrayAlloc test to only run on 64-bit. Feel free to set the expected value on 32-bit to whatever you're getting. On Sun, Apr 6, 2014 at 11:49 AM, Simon Peyton Jones simo...@microsoft.comwrote: Several perf tests have

Btw, you can set the -fmax-inline-alloc-size flag to a really high value to prevent inline allocation, if you want to test if that's the culprit. Inline allocation shouldn't change the amount being allocated though, just how it's allocated. T4267 doesn't use byte arrays at all so that should
