I tested the maybe outdated and it does not look so on gcc-4.4.
I made some tests to know when -fomit-frame-pointer is enabled on
gcc --version
gcc (Ubuntu 4.4.3-4ubuntu5) 4.4.3
gcc -m32 -O0 -Q --help=optimizers | grep omit
-fomit-frame-pointer [disabled]
gcc -m64 -O0 -Q --help=optimizers | grep omit
-fomit-frame-pointer [disabled]
gcc -m32 -O1 -Q --help=optimizers | grep omit
-fomit-frame-pointer [enabled]
gcc -m64 -O1 -Q --help=optimizers | grep omit
-fomit-frame-pointer [enabled]
gcc -m32 -O2 -Q --help=optimizers | grep omit
-fomit-frame-pointer [enabled]
gcc -m64 -O2 -Q --help=optimizers | grep omit
-fomit-frame-pointer [enabled]
gcc -m32 -O3 -Q --help=optimizers | grep omit
-fomit-frame-pointer [enabled]
gcc -m64 -O3 -Q --help=optimizers | grep omit
-fomit-frame-pointer [enabled]
Doesn't look to make a m32|m64 difference and -f-omit-frame-pointer is by
default enabled starting to -O1
I made some build tests rebuilding chap 6 gcc-4.4.5 (this is the version I
compile) on i686.
Without --disable-bootstrap and without the -fomit-frame-pointer sed, I have
in the compilation log:
- 1056 lines that include -fomit-frame-point
- 21 lines that include -fno-omit-frame-pointer (CRTSTUFF_T_CFLAGS and
crt{begin,end}* .o)
With --disable-boot and the fomit-frame-pointer sed, I have in the log
- 759 lines that include -fomit-frame-point
- 7 lines that include -fno-omit-frame-pointer (CRTSTUFF_T_CFLAGS and
crt{begin,end}* .o)
I understand the 21 vs 7 lines on -fno-omit-frame-pointer count as that's
the 3 build with boostrap enabled with exactly the same lines.
