[LLVMdev] Disabling ExecutionEngine tests for Hexagon

[Jyotsna Verma]

Thanks Dan!

The ArchSupportMCJIT() functions in
unittests/ExecutionEngine/MCJIT/MCJITTestBase.h uses "Host Triple" to check
for compatibility. Since we cross-compile on X86, "Host Triple" for us will
be "X86" which is a supported architecture. I tried removing it  from the
supported arch list but didn't see any effect.

I was just wondering if these tests are meant to work for any of the
cross-compiled targets. If not, then we can probably enable them only when
Host and Target Triples are same and the host architecture is in the
supported list.

Thanks,
Jyotsna
