Hi, Does gcc apply inter-procedural optimizations across functions called using a function pointer? I guess that gcc performs conservatively assuming that the pointer could point everywhere because the pointer is a declared as a global variable and could be changed in any place. Is it true? In this case, is there any pragma or directive to give a hint to the compiler, giving the set of possible values of the pointer (which in my case is known by the developer)? If not, this could be useful for optimization purposes.
thanks in advance,
Salut!
Ramon.
