            Bug ID: 95565
           Summary: [Feature request] add a flag to only instrument
                    function entry.
           Product: gcc
           Version: 11.0
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P3
         Component: tree-optimization
          Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org
          Reporter: hiraditya at msn dot com
  Target Milestone: ---

The flag -finstrument-functions instruments both entry and the exit of
function. There are many scenarios (like cheap profiling) only instrumenting
the function entry is sufficient. But gcc instruments exit as well contributing
to unwanted code size increase.
