From 9a858dc7cebce01a7bb616bebb85087fa2b40871 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Andi Kleen Date: Mon, 17 Sep 2012 14:09:15 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] compiler.h: add __visible gcc 4.6+ has support for a externally_visible attribute that prevents the optimizer from optimizing unused symbols away. Add a __visible macro to use it with that compiler version or later. This is used (at least) by the "Link Time Optimization" patchset.
