[PATCH] ppc64: remove -fno-omit-frame-pointer
During some code inspection using gcc 4.0 I noticed a stack frame was being
created for a number of functions that didnt require it. For example:
c0000000000df944 <._spin_unlock>:
c0000000000df944: fb e1 ff f0 std r31,-16(r1)
c0000000000df948: f8 21 ff c1 stdu r1,-64(r1)
c0000000000df94c: 7c 3f 0b 78 mr r31,r1
c0000000000df950: 7c 20 04 ac lwsync
c0000000000df954: e8 21 00 00 ld r1,0(r1)
c0000000000df958: 38 00 00 00 li r0,0
c0000000000df95c: 90 03 00 00 stw r0,0(r3)
c0000000000df960: eb e1 ff f0 ld r31,-16(r1)
c0000000000df964: 4e 80 00 20 blr
It turns out we are adding -fno-omit-frame-pointer to ppc64 which is
causing the above behaviour. Removing that flag results in much better
code:
c0000000000d5b30 <._spin_unlock>:
c0000000000d5b30: 7c 20 04 ac lwsync
c0000000000d5b34: 38 00 00 00 li r0,0
c0000000000d5b38: 90 03 00 00 stw r0,0(r3)
c0000000000d5b3c: 4e 80 00 20 blr
We dont require a frame pointer to debug on ppc64, so remove it.
