Dear All, For C source programs only, is there a scenario where several (eg two or more) C source files (ie passed *.c arguments) can be passed with the -fwhole-program flag and without the -combine flag?
In other words, some medium sized (eg < 100 KLOC of C source in several *.c files) programs can be compiled with gcc -O3 -fwhole-program -combine *.c -o prog ...libraries and includes.... but the compilation fails if the -combine flag is not given. Maybe the driver might issue some warning if -fwhole-program is given without -combine for several C source inputs? Or probably, I am not very well understanding the -fwhole-program flag.... By the way, I am surprised that so few programs are compiled with it... http://www.google.com/codesearch?q=fwhole-program give few results....
