[cfe-commits] [PATCH] Mark ARCMT test cases as XFAIL on ARM

[David Tweed]

Hi Wei-Ren,

To take a step backwards: are you seeing failures on all the tests you've XFAIL'd? I see a couple of test failures where it reports issues with the target triple for 3 cases:

GC-check-warn-nsmalloc.m
arc-ivar-layout.m
debug-info-crash-2.m

All the others pass. If we can figure out that it's a specific platform-unfixable issue peculiar to arm*-linux-eabi then it would be fine to XFAIL such tests on ARM. (Clearly if it's actually something fixable it ought to be fixed :-) ) But I don't think we want to XFAIL tests that are passing.

Regards,
David Tweed

  Well, not a Apple guy, so I really don't know. But from the website [1],
it seems ARC expected to work on iOS (see below). I'll ask on clang ml for
comments.

  ARC is supported in Xcode 4.2 for OS X v10.6 and v10.7 (64-bit
  applications) and for iOS 4 and iOS 5.
