Any optimisation may cause cinit (not just cinit, but any program) to fail
|
|
and to do mysterious things instead of expected actions.
|
|
|
|
|
|
1. gcc options
|
|
|
|
gcc knows of several optimisation flags. Mostly interesting is -Os for small
|
|
size (this is btw broken on gcc-3.4.3 on x86!).
|
|
|
|
One can also pass -Werror so that any warning makes the compile to fail.
|
|
|
|
The current standard for cinit is: (see CFLAGS in the Makefile).
|
|
|
|
|
|
2. striping
|
|
|
|
With strip(1) you can remove specific sections of object files.
|
|
You have to find out, which ones you can remove safely
|
|
(for instance with objdump(1)).
|
|
|
|
The current standard for cinit is: (see STRIP in the Makefile)
