These are the results of testing ECL on a Raspberry Pi 3B+ running Raspbian Buster.
Because the Raspberry Pi 3B+ has only 1G of RAM and the default swap size for Raspbian Buster is 100M it is highly recommended that you extend the swap size to something larger. I use 1G. Instructions for doing this are located at:
https://wpitchoune.net/tricks/raspberry_pi3_increase_swap_size.html
(I was unable to build Ironclad successfully without doing this.)
My build configuration is:
./configure \ --enable-shared \ --enable-threads \ --enable-boehm=system \ --enable-libatomic=system \ --enable-gmp=system \ --enable-c99complex \ --enable-unicode=32 \ --enable-smallcons \ --with-tcp \ --with-serve-event \ --with-clos-streams \ --with-cmuformat \ --with-asdf \ --without-defsystem \ --with-cmp \ --with-bytecmp \ --with-dffi=included \ --with-fpe \ --with-signed-zero \ --with-ieee-fp \ --prefix=${HOME}/ecl
The FPU on the Raspberry Pi does not generate CPUexceptions, which prevents Linux from generating SIGFPE signals, which prevents ECL from detecting floating-point errors and delivering appropriate error conditions. The patch below causes ECL to poll for floating-point errors (rather than relying on SIGFPEs). This situation is properly detected by 'make check'.

The results of 'make check' are as follows:
Did 215 tests (0 crashed), 17647 checks. Pass: 17645 (100%) Fail: 2 ( 0%)
Failure details: -------------------------------- MIX.0016.FIFO-TESTS: FAIL: (EQUAL "foobar" (READ-LINE STREAM NIL :FOO)) -------------------------------- CMP.0044.INLINE-COS: FAIL: (NULL #:OO-1328) Expected NIL, but got (SHORT-FLOAT SINGLE-FLOAT) --------------------------------
I did not run ansi-test. It takes too long to run on a Raspberry Pi.
I did not run the maxima tests. I gave up after being unable to get them to build and run. I was curious to see how the C99 complex data type would perform.
The cl-bench results are:
