Ok so it seems to be a 64-bit symbol table (according to https://docs.oracle.com/cd/E53394_01/html/E54772/ar-3head.html): > A 64-bit archive symbol table sets ar_name to the string “/SYM64/”, padded with 9 blank characters to the right." We should skip it. I will make a patch. Thanks for the

Hi, Ryan, I saw your hosting offer, thanks a lot! I must have skipped the past suggesting haskell.org funds for a machine and only saw the hosting offer. But an existing unused machine is just fine. Richard, sounds great!. I should not work on in before Monday anyways. No other requirements

Re: New home for the perf.haskell.org builder wanted

I have an unused machine in my department. It currently has 6GB of memory on it, but memory is cheap enough these days, so this could be expanded if necessary. (Is this necessary?) We would slap a basic Linux on it, give it a hostname (xxx.cs.brynmawr.edu), and then make an account for you,

Joachim, Did you see my response earlier? I've pasted it below. Ryan Hi Joachim and Sebastian, I think it would make sense to get a machine like that with Haskell.org funds. My company (Obsidian) would be happy to host it physically and cover internet/power/etc., although our facilities

Re: New home for the perf.haskell.org builder wanted

Hi all, let me bump this request. http://perf.haskell.org/ghc has now stopped producing new results. It does not have to be a fancy server or anything like that; an unused office machine in some corner would do as well, it has done that so far. (I wonder if I should reactivate my T400s for that.

RE: T12041 failing?

Hmm. Yes, this is an (actually harmless) assertion failure if your build has -DDEBUG on. I think it’s just a fluke that it’s only just started failing. I’ll make a ticket for it; I don’t think it’s super-urgent. Simon From: ghc-devs [mailto:ghc-devs-boun...@haskell.org] On Behalf Of Simon

So I just tried validating on another system: > ghc git:(master) $ uname -a Linux linux-enrr.suse 4.1.34-33-default #1 SMP PREEMPT Thu Oct 20 08:03:29 UTC 2016 (fe18aba) x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux > ghc git:(master) $ gcc --version gcc (SUSE Linux) 4.8.5 Copyright (C)

My bad, in fact we do. Could you try with the attached patch? It shows the failing filename in the archive. On 11/11/2016 17:18, Sylvain Henry wrote: It seems like we don't bypass the special filename "/" (symbol lookup table) in rts/Linker.c
