Subject: Re: [OpenWrt-Devel] compiler optimization flags on the
brcm2708platform?
VIPS is obviously the wrong package to be talking about with respect to
compiler optimization flags...:-)
I read this article on compiler optimization flags
https://forum.openwrt.org/viewtopic.php?id=35323 and don't see the same
options available on the current Makefiles.
/trunk/target/linux/brcm2708/Makefile
Where is the place to set the compiler optimization flags?
Cheers
