This is after applying #38650 and #38675. The LLVM diff between Debian vs Rust is here.

Note that, because of these failures, the whole-compiler tests (e.g. run-pass etc) have not been run, but they probably also have failures.

Seems to me that some optimization is making this test fail.

[er-1]

I tried a build without the optimization.
smoke_dtor and test_typed_arena_drop_small_count didn't fail, but then I got 6 new failing tests:

[arielb1]

The asm tests are just missing ignore-powerpc flags or whatever (they already have ignore-arm etc. - they only work on x86). What's the correct spelling? cc @alexcrichton

[racardoso]

@er-1 Doing a quick looking on the output you sent, the code is warning a dead code and (maybe) the warning output is not expected since the optimizations should do a dead code elimination:

------stderr------------------------------
{"message":"function is never used: `foo`, #[warn(dead_code)]  ...

'smoke_dtor' and typed_arena_drop_small_count fails with opt-level equals 2 or greater. I'll try to build with opt-level=1 to see if those tests fails.

[er-1]

I've added ignore flags in the related asm test files. I'll let you know how the build goes.

[er-1]

As said I added the ignore flags in the related asm test files.
I also made a little change into src/test/run-make/issue-24445/Makefile:

And then I'm able to build and test rust on ppc64el :)

[amboar]

@er-1 I've been meaning to send a pull req to mark those asm tests as ignored on powerpc64* for a while. Thanks for that.

Separately, I've been investigating the failure of test_typed_arena_drop_small_count on powerpc64le. It appears to be an issue with the difference between the llvm inline and always-inline passes. I've put up a repository to demonstrate the failure: https://github.com/amboar/libarena-ppc64le-small-drop

Here libarena was extracted from 1.15.0 and hacked up a bit to remove the already passing test cases. It shouldn't matter what version it comes from though as it's the optimiser that's failing, and it's still failing with recent nightly rustcs as well as 1.15.0 itself.

I haven't yet looked into the details of inline vs always-inline but I plan to when I have some time.
