It wasn't - it's an ix86/x86_64 switch and not supported on sparc. e.g. from the GCC 4.2 manual: http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc-4.2.0/gcc/i386-and-x86_002d64-Options.html minline-all-stringops By default GCC inlines string operations only when destination is known to be aligned at least to 4 byte boundary. This enables more inlining, increase code size, but may improve performance of code that depends on fast memcpy, strlen and memset for short lengths. In general '-m' switches are target-specific.
