Bug ID: 66811
Summary: RFE: have jit dumps be compileable as C code
Product: gcc
Version: 6.0
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P3
Component: jit
Assignee: dmalcolm at gcc dot gnu.org
Reporter: dmalcolm at gcc dot gnu.org
Blocks: 66627
Target Milestone: ---
Whilst trying to track down a code generation issue with the jit, a user noted
that gcc_jit_context_dump_to_file resembles C, but isn't C, and that it would
be useful if it was compileable as C, so that we can compare the C frontend
with the jit:
https://gcc.gnu.org/ml/jit/2015-q3/msg00021.html
Specific pain-points were:
1) types are in wrong order
2) function types are incorrectly output
3) array types are incorrectly output
(in that mail "4) in one case as least a pointer was missing." turned out to be
user error).
