GCC减少二元膨胀 - 奇怪的副作用

Question

古怪

我已经编译了Google协议缓冲区,没有使用额外的参数进行"膨胀"编译,并使用以下命令进行编译./configure CXXFLAGS="-ffunction-sections -fdata-sections".du-h透露:

问题

我没有改变构建脚本以--gc-sections在链接期间执行" ",因此如果不是更大,unbloat构建不应该是相同的吗？导致尺寸减小的原因是什么？

背景

我目前正在使用gcc编译一个低级库,该库是一个巨大的2.5MB无条件和970KB剥离.这是不可接受的,我需要删除死代码 - 我依赖OpenSSL,协议缓冲区和Boost的3个库,我将静态链接最后2个到我的库中.这两个静态链接的库必须使用"-ffunction-sections -fdata-sections"进行编译,以便我删除死代码.

相关问题

我的下一个问题是如何指定用于消除死代码的根.

Answer 1

恐怕增益与-ffunction-sections -fdata-sections：当您在配置命令行上指定时CXXFLAGS="-ffunction-sections -fdata-sections"，您覆盖了默认标志-O2 -g -DNDEBUG。因此，您的代码是在没有优化的情况下编译的。

您应该重做您的测试CXXFLAGS="-ffunction-sections -fdata-sections -O2 -g -DNDEBUG"，您将得到预期的（即相同的）结果。
