202 help
203 This option determines if the kernel forces gcc to inline the functions
204 developers have marked 'inline'. Doing so takes away freedom from gcc to
205 do what it thinks is best, which is desirable for the gcc 3.x series of
206 compilers. The gcc 4.x series have a rewritten inlining algorithm and
207 disabling this option will generate a smaller kernel there. Hopefully
208 this algorithm is so good that allowing gcc4 to make the decision can
209 become the default in the future, until then this option is there to
210 test gcc for this.
