Hi!
extern void bar (void) __attribute__((visibility ("hidden")));
void foo (void)
{
bar ();
bar ();
}
compiled on ppc64-linux with -O2 -m64 -mminimal-toc
leads to bl bar without nop in the following instruction
and to sibling call.
Now, when this together with bar's definition is linked
into a big binary and foo and bar need to have different TOCs,
ld issues error:
sibling call optimization to `bar' does not allow automatic multiple TOCs;
recompile with -mminimal-toc or -fno-optimize-sibling-calls, or make `foo'
extern
Shouldn't -mminimal-toc also forbid omitting nops if
the target call isn't defined in the same file and forbid
sibcalls to such functions? Or do we need another switch?
In this case -mminimal-toc, nor -fno-optimize-sibling-calls
helps ATM, only removing the hidden visibility.
