Thomas Koenig <tkoenig at gcc dot gnu.org> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Target Milestone|--- |7.0 --- Comment #6 from Thomas Koenig <tkoenig at gcc dot gnu.org> --- (In reply to Andrew Pinski from comment #5) > What happens if you add -fschedule-insns? -fschedule-insns makes the stack use slightly higher. With current trunk: ig25@linux-fd1f:~/Krempel/SMID> gcc -O1 -S example.c && grep subq example.s subq $2416, %rsp ig25@linux-fd1f:~/Krempel/SMID> gcc -O1 -fschedule-insns -S example.c && grep subq example.s subq $2432, %rsp By comparison, gcc 4.8 uses _far_ less stack: ig25@linux-fd1f:~/Krempel/SMID> /usr/bin/gcc -O1 -S example.c && grep subq example.s subq $272, %rsp ig25@linux-fd1f:~/Krempel/SMID> /usr/bin/gcc -O1 -fschedule-insns -S example.c && grep subq example.s subq $416, %rsp -O2 and -O3 do not help either.
