--- - ghc/lib/std/PrelGHC.hi-boot, to declare the primop
---
-- - if the primop is inline (i.e. a macro), then:
--- ghc/includes/PrimOps.h
--- ghc/compiler/nativeGen/StixPrim.lhs
--- ghc/compiler/nativeGen/MachCode.lhs (if implementation is machine-dependent)
+-- ghc/compiler/AbsCUtils.lhs (dscCOpStmt)
+-- defines the translation of the primop into simpler
+-- abstract C operations.
--
-- - or, for an out-of-line primop:
-- ghc/includes/PrimOps.h (just add the declaration)
-- ghc/rts/PrimOps.hc (define it here)
+-- ghc/rts/Linker.c (declare the symbol for GHCi)
