            Bug ID: 78070
           Summary: Suggestion for improvement for patch submission
                    criteria
           Product: gcc
           Version: 7.0
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P3
         Component: web
          Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org
          Reporter: dcb314 at hotmail dot com
  Target Milestone: ---

I see that in the current tests to perform for patch acceptance, in the web
documentation, is "make bootstrap".

AFAIK, this is equivalent to bootstrap-O2.

Would it be worthwhile to suggest "make bootstrap-O3" as an optional testing
extra ?

It might be made mandatory sometime in the future, for some targets.

I think this would be of value to anyone changing the middle end
or the back end.
