Re: [Xen-devel] [Fwd: stack overflow "cause" found]

OK, with -Os it doesn't quite build due to the built-ins not being
inlined. With -O2 the stack usage changes dramatically...
It would be nice if -O2 worked. Quite a scary change give the amount
of inline asm though...
Not only does -O2 seem to work, but without it we get stack
overflows and things suddenly stop working.
I've been beating up my x86-64 system with a few VT and paravirt
guests for over an hour now, and it no longer crashes. Without
-O2, I can make it crash within minutes...
We only avoided -O2 on debug builds. It's trivial to add it back in.
Seems gcc is just really dumb with anything less. I'll add it back in
for debug builds. I also made the stack space larger, so we'll be
double-protected from overflows in future. :-)
