[PATCH 2/3] Implement -flto-slim
From: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com>
This adds a new LTO mode "lto slim" that only puts LTO information
into the object file, no "fallback code". This improves compilation
performance because the code has to be only generated once. It also
allows some future extensions I am planning to do.
The disadvantage is that a slim build requires more tool chain support
because there is no "safety net" of fallback code in the object file.
For example ar and ranlib need use the gcc lto plugin (and currently
need to be binutils mainline) to be able to create the symbol indexes.
Also libtool needs to be updated. And it will only work with
the linker plugin.
Because of these complications slim LTO is not default, but a separate
-flto-slim option. The option works with whopr and with LTO.
Spreading the checking of the flag into the various frontends is ugly,
but I didn't find a simple nicer way to do this.
Thanks to Jan Hubicka for some fixes to my initial version.
Requires earlier patches to fix up collect2.
This passes normal bootstrap and testing.
