However, ACPI in Linux has been built with -Os since 2.4 on the assumption that since ACPI should never be performance critical, that it was best to simply have it consume as little space as possible. It appears that the entire kernel is now built with -Os by default, so it looks like this is now redundant in the default case and will have an effect only when somebody disables CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE to build with -O2. So I'm willing to delete -Os from the ACPI Makefile in the interest of simplicity. thanks, Len Brown, Intel Open Source Technology Center -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-acpi" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
