Comment (by kgardas):

 I'm following the same way like Stephen/David/me did ARM in the past:
 https://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/wiki/Commentary/Compiler/Backends/LLVM/GHC_LLVMPorting
 NCG way makes sense once you do have LLVM working, then you can try -fasm
 on smallest examples and do it step-by-step with increased example
 complexity.
