Hello, could you please provide some comments about the state of "-Os" (optimising for size) in the gcc 4.5.x versions of Linaro's tool chain?
It appears there are a number of issues with recent versions of GCC that get triggered when optimising for size, for example http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=45052 http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=44392 Some other projects like the Linux Foundation driven Poky (resp. Yocto project) capitulated and stopped using -Os, see for example here: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.embedded.poky/2311/focus=2565 On the other hand, I can see that Linaro even adds improvements for "-Os", see for example here: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.linaro.toolchain/367 So I wonder what the state of these problems with "-Os" is in the Linaro tool chain? Have these issues been solved, and is "-Os" reliably working with the Linaro tool chain? Thanks in advance.
