How to port fsharp on new CPU architecture ?

[shushanhf]

Is the fsharp project cross-platform when porting is to a new CPU where the runtime had supported the LoongArch64 architecture ?

Should I have to port fsharp to a new architecture ?

F# is not different from C# in this perspective - F# compiler emits IL so it's supported anywhere IL is supported. I believe your work on runtime side should already enable F# code running on LA64.

There are alternative compilers like Fable (it supports compling F# to TypeScript, Python, Rust, maybe more) but those will use different runtimes obviously

Is there any problem running simple Hello world F# app on LA64 for example?

I believe fsc.dll comes as part of dotnet official sdk.
@vzarytovskii can you help here maybe?

The fsc.dll is PE32+ within the offical sdk6.0.7 but I want fsc.dll is PE32, not the AOT version.

The SDK is built by ourself while building the C# and IL is ok.
The Fsharp is built on x64-linux while disable the crossgen.

Pinging @dsyme too just in case

I think we only build anycpu and arm64 versions, but it should work on any platform dotnet works. OOMs can happen for different reasons (maybe tail prefixes cause it), we will need to investigate.
Could you please create an issue for that?

Also, looping @KevinRansom in.
