It seems at some point the .size hook was hijacked to emit some

linker couldn't scan the function body for non-split-stack calls.

gcc/ChangeLog:

	* config/s390/s390.c (s390_asm_declare_function_size): Add code
	to actually emit the .size directive.

...

  s390_asm_declare_function_size (FILE *asm_out_file,
-				const char *fnname ATTRIBUTE_UNUSED, tree decl)
+				const char *fnname, tree decl)
  {
+  if (!flag_inhibit_size_directive)
+    ASM_OUTPUT_MEASURED_SIZE (asm_out_file, fnname);
    if (DECL_FUNCTION_SPECIFIC_TARGET (decl) == NULL)
      return;
    fprintf (asm_out_file, "\t.machine pop\n");

It would be good to use the original ASM_DECLARE_FUNCTION_SIZE macro from config/elfos.h here.  This
probably would require to change its name in s390.h first and then use it from
s390_asm_declare_function_size. Not really beautiful but at least changes to the original macro
would not require adjusting our backend.

I've looked into how the other archs are doing this and didn't find anything better than just
including the code from the original macro. The real fix probably would be to turn this into a
target hook instead.

I've committed the patch now since it fixes a real problem not only with split-stack.

Thanks!

I did a version that reincludes elfos.h, but it didn't finish testing (it made it through bootstrap) before you applied the patch:

But, this is much uglier, and the macro is very unlikely to change in the first place. I guess we should stay with the applied patch.

Thanks,

Marcin
