Sorry, I missed that fact.


At this moment of time, it is OK given the following:

 - CONFIG_OPTIMIZE_INLINING is defined only for x86
 - Clang cannot build x86 due to missing asm-goto


However, Clang with -Og
does not inline even such simple code like this:


-----test code------
static inline int foo(int x)
{
        return x;
}

int bar(int x)
{
        return foo(x);
}
-------------------



$ clang -Og -c -o bar.o  bar.c
$ objdump -d  bar.o
bar.o:     file format elf64-x86-64


Disassembly of section .text:

0000000000000000 <bar>:
   0: eb 0e                jmp    10 <foo>
   2: 66 2e 0f 1f 84 00 00 nopw   %cs:0x0(%rax,%rax,1)
   9: 00 00 00
   c: 0f 1f 40 00          nopl   0x0(%rax)

0000000000000010 <foo>:
  10: 89 f8                mov    %edi,%eax
  12: c3                    retq
