This has significantly regressed FreeBSD's performance with the new version of Clang. It seems Clang does not inline functions at -O1, unlike GCC, and since FreeBSD currently compiles its kernel with -O whenever debug symbols are enabled[1], this results in all its `static inline` helper functions not being inlined at all, a pattern that is common in the kernel, used for things like `get_curthread` and the atomics implementations. [1] This is a dubious decision made r140400 in 2005 to provide "truer debugger stack traces" (well, before then there was ping-ponging between -O and -O2 based on concerns around correctness vs performance, but amd64 is an exception that has always used -O2 since r127180 it seems). Given that GCC will inline at -O, at least these days, the motivation seems to no longer exist, and compiling a kernel at anything other than -O2 (or maybe -O3) seems like a silly thing to do, but nevertheless it's what is currently done.
