GHC Compilation Options

Model based on a blog post Haskell Web Server in a 5MB Docker Image. The actual reference for build options is on GHC Haskell Wiki.

When building GHC compiler, one can choose from the following compilation options:

CompilationOptions

with_ghc -> GHC// the existing version of GHC used for the build

// should there be a LLVM version of the existing GHC?

xor buildFlavor

quick

perf

perfLlvm

// [ llvm ] // should perfLlvm require choosing GHCBackend.llvm?

xor INTEGER_LIBRARY

integer_gmp

integer_simple

xor GHCBackend

asm

llvm -> LLVM

And the available choices for GHC and LLVM:

enum GHC = GHC_784 | GHC_7101

enum LLVM = LLVM_34 | LLVM_35
