* Change how the dblatex/lndir problem is worked aroundIan Lynagh2010-08-241-33/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | Hack: dblatex normalises the name of the main input file using os.path.realpath, which means that if we're in a linked build tree, it find the real source files rather than the symlinks in our link tree. This is fine for the static sources, but it means it can't find the generated sources. We therefore also generate the main input file, so that it really is in the link tree, and thus dblatex can find everything.

* --make is now the default (#3515), and -fno-code works with --make (#3783)Simon Marlow2010-04-271-14/+110
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If the command line contains any Haskell source files, then we behave as if --make had been given. The meaning of the -c flag has changed (back): -c now selects one-shot compilation, but stops before linking. However, to retain backwards compatibility, -c is still allowed with --make, and means the same as --make -no-link. The -no-link flag has been un-deprecated. -fno-code is now allowed with --make (#3783); the fact that it was disabled before was largely accidental, it seems. We also had some regressions in this area: it seems that -fno-code was causing a .hc file to be emitted in certain cases. I've tidied up the code, there was no need for -fno-code to be a "mode" flag, as far as I can tell. -fno-code does not emit interface files, nor does it do recompilation checking, as suggested in #3783. This would make Haddock emit interface files, for example, and I'm fairly sure we don't want to do that. Compiling with -fno-code is pretty quick anyway, perhaps we can get away without recompilation checking.

* Implement SSE2 floating-point support in the x86 native code generator (#594)Simon Marlow2010-02-042-1/+27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The new flag -msse2 enables code generation for SSE2 on x86. It results in substantially faster floating-point performance; the main reason for doing this was that our x87 code generation is appallingly bad, and since we plan to drop -fvia-C soon, we need a way to generate half-decent floating-point code. The catch is that SSE2 is only available on CPUs that support it (P4+, AMD K8+). We'll have to think hard about whether we should enable it by default for the libraries we ship. In the meantime, at least -msse2 should be an acceptable replacement for "-fvia-C -optc-ffast-math -fexcess-precision". SSE2 also has the advantage of performing all operations at the correct precision, so floating-point results are consistent with other platforms. I also tweaked the x87 code generation a bit while I was here, now it's slighlty less bad than before.
