I had hoped that using OS_main would get rid of the call to main,
wastes stack space, and all of the dead _exit code, which is not allowed
under some design guidelines (as well as taking space), that will
never be executed, but it doesn't.
Is there an attribute that would?
using 'noreturn' does not work on main, causes:
Main/main.cpp: In function 'int main()':
Main/main.cpp:60: warning: function declared 'noreturn' has a 'return' statement
Removing 'int' from main causes different errors.
Test case:
int main( void ) __attribute__ ((OS_main));
int main( void )
{
for(;;)
;
}
generates the following where main will never return and
_exit will never be executed.
