Try with CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE=n. A feature was added to gcc for -Os to "outline" the save/restore routines. I'm surprised this hasn't shown up sooner. Well need to add _restvr_* / _savevr_* to the version in lib/crtsaveres.S. http://gcc.gnu.org/git/?p=gcc.git;a=blob_plain;f=libgcc/config/rs6000/crtrestvr.S;hb=HEAD http://gcc.gnu.org/git/?p=gcc.git;a=blob_plain;f=libgcc/config/rs6000/crtsavevr.S;hb=HEAD - k _______________________________________________ Linuxppc-dev mailing list Linuxppc-dev@lists.ozlabs.org https://lists.ozlabs.org/listinfo/linuxppc-dev
