Hi all,
I am wondering if there is a method to tell explicitly GCC (built with target `sparc-elf') to generate a leaf procedure for a given function.
I had a look at the machine code generated by the compiler, and it seems not to automatically generate a leaf procedure for a function that has not calls, like:
----
void foo(void)
{
return;
}
----
I would appreciate if somebody told me the way to explicitly generate a SPARC assembly leaf procedure, starting from a C function. It would be perfect if there was a way to tell the compiler which registers can be used and which not (this would allow the coexistence of C and assembly sources).
My reference architecture is SPARC v8.
Thank you in advance,
Josef Ahmad
