Bug ID: 106752
Summary: [OpenMP] reverse offload – avoid emitting 'nohost'
variant on the host / cleanup
Product: gcc
Version: 13.0
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Keywords: missed-optimization, openmp
Severity: normal
Priority: P3
Component: middle-end
Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org
Reporter: burnus at gcc dot gnu.org
Target Milestone: ---
For reverse offload, GCC generates a
<...>._omp_fn.0.nohost
function on all devices and on the host it also generates
<...>._omp_fn.0
However, the 'nohost' version is not used on the host and could be removed.
(Cleanup + size optimization.) - Or in other words:
(Pre-remark: DECL_IGNORE_P is set in omp-expand.cc's expand_omp_target
while the quote below is from omp-offload.cc execute_omp_device_lower.)

The debug stuff ought to be through DECL_IGNORED_P on the FUNCTION_DECL.
If you want it set just on one side and clear on the other side, perhaps set
or clear it during lto streaming it in in offload lto1?
As for emitting it, perhaps turning it into an external declaration from
definition afterwards?
