Subject: [Ksummit-discuss] [TECH TOPIC] Compiler shopping list
Date: Fri, 22 Jul 2016 11:41:00 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <15569.1469184060@warthog.procyon.org.uk> (raw)
Are there additional things we can get the compiler to do for us? Some
things I've seen brought up:
(1) Additional __atomic_*() ops could be useful. Suggestions I've heard
include direct LL/SC support - though the compiler people don't seem so
keen on that.
(2) -mmodel=kernel flag so that the compiler can optimise better for the
kernel memory model.
David
