[Mono-dev] Mono on ARM

Mon Sep 8 15:12:26 EDT 2008

Thanks Massi (that's how they call you, right?).  I haven't tried you fix yet since I'm working from the branch 2.0 and not the current head.

I used the work around that was provided.  I got things to compile but now I have a runtime issue.

I get the following error at runtime:

** (Loader.exe:1116): WARNING **: unknown opcode r4const in mono_arch_output_basic_block()
** ERROR **: file mini-arm.c: line 3242 (mono_arch_output_basic_block): should not be reachedaborting...Trace/breakpoint trap
I'm running a sample test on floats and doubles as specified in the in the first part of the e-mail.

I've looked into the file mini-arm.c and it would seem (if I'm reading this right) that the ARM_FPU_FPA needs to be defined.

I will try this but in version 1.9.1, there was a FPU check in the configure script.  I've looked in the config.log but don't see this.

Am I making sense?

I tried to disable the profiler but I still get the same compiler issue.  I doubled checked by looking into the config.log file and it says that the profiler is disabled (actually, even when the configure script finishes). Am I missing something?

Yes, enable-minimal does exactly what you want.Thou the issue you found should be properly handled by the configure script.Massi, do you mind taking a look at that? If you have too much stuff on your hand this week Ican take a look at how to add proper configure foo around.

I tried compiling from a snapshot (took the mono 2.0 branch, right?) but I got a compilation error. It seems mono-profiler-logging.c uses the struct stat 'st_mtim'.  But this field only exists if __USE_MISC is defined, which in turn is defined by the features.h file. I noticed in the configure script there is a flag called enable-minimal. If I do enable-minimal=profile, will this disable the profiler?

CC: mono-devel-list at lists.ximian.comSubject: Re: [Mono-dev] Mono on ARMThanks for the quick response.  It is interesting what you say since I was actually going through all the changesets since 1.9.1 and I noticed many fixes regarding th earm, softfloat, ... I will get the latest code and try it out.  Thanks.

A lot of bugs with soft float has been fixed for the 2.0 release and even more work went in the current development branch.Please test with the 2.0 snapshot builds and report your bugs so we can fix then in time for the release.

Hi, I'm trying to run mono 1.9.1 on the arm (ARM9).  I have an issue when I try to cast a long to a double.  It simply does nothing. 
·         I'm using soft float in FPA (actually, the configure script seems to detect it properly -> it defines ARM_FPU_FPA).
·         I'm using GNU EABI.
·         When I do a mathematical operation on doubles, it works (Test in C#).
·         When I print (Console.WriteLine) a double, it works (Test in C#).
·         When I cast an int to a double, it works.
·         I tried to define ARM_FPU_NONE and it generates an ExecutionEngineException (so, obviously, I dropped it.)
·         I tried to define __ARM_EABI__ and it generates an ExecutionEngineException (so, obviously, I dropped it.) When I cast a long to a double, it doesn't work. Here is what I do: int i = 1234;long l = 1234;float f = 1234.56;double d = 1234.56;double result = 64; result = (double)i;Console.WriteLine("Result (cast from int):  " + result); ->  It shows me 1234.  This is good. result = 64;result = (double)f;Console.WriteLine("Result (cast from float):  " + result); ->  It shows me 1234.56.  This is also very good. result = 64;result = (double)I;Console.WriteLine("Result (cast from long):  " + result); ->  It shows me 64 ????  This is not good. Am I missing something? Any other pointers?
