kbuild: Disable extra debugging info in .s output
Modern gcc adds view assignments, reset assertion checking in .loc directives and a couple more additional debug markers, which clutters the asm output unnecessarily: For example: bsp_resume: .LFB3466: .loc 1 1868 1 is_stmt 1 view -0 .cfi_startproc .loc 1 1869 2 view .LVU73 # arch/x86/kernel/cpu/common.c:1869: if (this_cpu->c_bsp_resume) .loc 1 1869 14 is_stmt 0 view .LVU74 movq this_cpu(%rip), %rax # this_cpu, this_cpu movq 64(%rax), %rax # this_cpu.94_1->c_bsp_resume, _2 # arch/x86/kernel/cpu/common.c:1869: if (this_cpu->c_bsp_resume) .loc 1 1869 5 view .LVU75 testq %rax, %rax # _2 je .L8 #, .loc 1 1870 3 is_stmt 1 view .LVU76 movq $boot_cpu_data, %rdi #, jmp __x86_indirect_thunk_rax or .loc 2 57 9 view .LVU478 .loc 2 57 9 view .LVU479 .loc 2 57 9 view .LVU480 .loc 2 57 9 view .LVU481 .LBB1385: .LBB1383: .LBB1379: .LBB1377: .LBB1375: .loc 2 57 9 view .LVU482 .loc 2 57 9 view .LVU483 movl %edi, %edx # cpu, cpu .LVL87: .loc 2 57 9 is_stmt 0 view .LVU484 That MOV in there is drowned in debugging information and latter makes it hard to follow the asm. And that DWARF info is not really needed for asm output staring. Disable the debug information generation which clutters the asm output unnecessarily: bsp_resume: # arch/x86/kernel/cpu/common.c:1869: if (this_cpu->c_bsp_resume) movq this_cpu(%rip), %rax # this_cpu, this_cpu movq 64(%rax), %rax # this_cpu.94_1->c_bsp_resume, _2 # arch/x86/kernel/cpu/common.c:1869: if (this_cpu->c_bsp_resume) testq %rax, %rax # _2 je .L8 #, # arch/x86/kernel/cpu/common.c:1870: this_cpu->c_bsp_resume(&boot_cpu_data); movq $boot_cpu_data, %rdi #, jmp __x86_indirect_thunk_rax .L8: # arch/x86/kernel/cpu/common.c:1871: } rep ret .size bsp_resume, .-bsp_resume [ bp: write commit message. ] Signed-off-by:Masahiro Yamada <yamada.masahiro@socionext.com> Signed-off-by:
