Why default "-finline-stringops=memset" if $(cc-option,-finline-stringops=memset), have we identified cases where build fail without that or is it just for future provision ? As shown in my previous email, with GCC 16 on powerpc32 we get a slightly better code without this option. --- diff --git a/init/Kconfig b/init/Kconfig index 8583d9f06c52..98d8d7fa64c5 100644 --- a/init/Kconfig +++ b/init/Kconfig @@ -173,6 +173,11 @@ config CC_HAS_ALLOC_TOKEN config CC_HAS_MULTIDIMENSIONAL_NONSTRING def_bool $(success,echo 'char tag[][4] __attribute__((__nonstring__)) = { };' | $(CC) $(CLANG_FLAGS) -x c - -c -o /dev/null -Werror) +config CC_OPT_INLINE_MEMSET + string + default "-finline-stringops=memset" if $(cc-option,-finline-stringops=memset) + default "-mllvm -max-store-memset=4294967295" if $(cc-option,-mllvm -max-store-memset=4294967295) + config LD_CAN_USE_KEEP_IN_OVERLAY # ld.lld prior to 21.0.0 did not support KEEP within an overlay description # https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/130661
