ugh same issue with gnugrep after 2 hours

for path in (nix path-info --all)
  set deriver (nix-store --query --deriver $path)
  if test $deriver != "unknown-deriver"
    echo "Checking $path..."
    echo "Deriver: $deriver"
    set system (nix derivation show "$deriver"^'*' | grep "\"system\":")
    echo "System: $system"
    if string match -q "*\"system\": \"riscv64-linux\"" $system
      echo "Pushing $path to riscv64-ghc-cache..."
      cachix push riscv64-ghc-cache $path
      echo "Done pushing $path to riscv64-ghc-cache."
    else
      echo "$path is not built for riscv64-linux."
    end
  end
end

It really sounds like there's something wrong with your system/emulator.
(diffutils builds fine for me.)

Given that you can reproduce on multiple x86 machines, it looks like:

native riscv => ok
emulated riscv => failure

I'm running the build emulated locally to be extra sure of the above.

I'm not really sure how Nixpkgs handles fixes for emulator-only issues.
(It could also just be that my RISC-V hardware is more forgiving than QEMU of non-standard behaviour?)

I moved the pad to https://wiki.nixos.org/wiki/RISC-V. I only moved the links for now. Who is the copyright owner of the GHC stuff at the end? Could you add it to the wiki?

Sure. Would it belong best on a separate page, given that it's quite long?
