You need to show us a small complete self-contained example.
Normally a program which works at -O0 and fails at -O1 has an
uninitialized variable somewhere.

Another common cause is aliasing - using pointer casts to access the
same data in different ways.
And (especially if this is embedded programming), also check for missing
"volatile" qualifiers.
Compile your code with lots of warnings - that will help spot mistakes.
The flags I often use are:
-Wall
-Wextra
-Winit-self
-Wmissing-include-dirs
-Wunused
-Wstrict-overflow
-Wfloat-equal
-Wundef
-Wunsafe-loop-optimizations
-Wpointer-arith
-Wcast-qual
-Wcast-align
-Wwrite-strings
-Wlogical-op
-Wmissing-declarations
-Wmissing-noreturn
-Wmissing-format-attribute
-Winline
-Wnested-externs
-Wdisabled-optimization
-Wunsafe-loop-optimizations
-Wpadded
-Wunreachable-code
-Wmissing-prototypes
-Wredundant-decls
-Wcast-qual
-Wcast-align
-Wpointer-arith
-Wnested-externs
-Wno-multichar
