Modern C failures in Haskell stack

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



We noticed that some ghc-* packages FTBFS with Modern C failures eg
these two picked at random:

  https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=113534602

I think what's happening here is that ghc is generating C FFI code
which is fed to GCC 14.  The code being generated is buggy.

So probably the fix for this is just in ghc itself.  I looked at
upstream ghc and wasn't able to identify any commits which fix this
(except maybe
https://github.com/ghc/ghc/commit/b3a3534b6f75b34dc4db76e904e071485da6d5cc).
But I didn't look especially hard and the code is very complicated.

An alternative to fixing this in the compiler is to throw up our hands
and add:

  %global build_type_safety_c 0

to every affected ghc-* package.  eg This fixes ghc-readline:

Any thoughts on this?

Rich.
