This can > cause all kinds of trouble, but in one particular reported case, Looks like there are couple more as well aside from __no_fgcse, are you also planning to fix them? arch/powerpc/kernel/setup.h:14:#define __nostackprotector __attribute__((__optimize__("no-stack-protector"))) tools/include/linux/compiler-gcc.h:37:#define __no_tail_call __attribute__((optimize("no-optimize-sibling-calls"))) > it causes -fno-asynchronous-unwind-tables to be disregarded, > resulting in .eh_frame info to be emitted for the function > inadvertently. Would have been useful to add a pointer to the original discussion with Link tag.
