Compiler Flags on Pidora

Project Description

Find a set of compiler flags that reduce the binary size and improve performance for packages built for Pidora.

Project Contributor(s)

TBD

Project Details

A set of packages will be selected to use for testing. Ideally, these packages will cover a range of dependencies and use cases, such as common utilities, libraries, and GUI tools.

The packages will be built in a Mock environment on an ARMv6 machine.

Goals by Release

Goals for each release and plans for reaching those goals:

* 0.1

Option A:

  • Choose a set of packages to use for the duration of this project.
  • Find combinations of compiler flags that reduce the binary size compared to the current flags

Option B:

  • Choose a set of packages to optimize
  • Find a set of compiler flags that provide the best binary size and performance optimizations for those packages

* 0.2 Option A:

  • Test the compiler flag combinations found in 0.1 for performance to determine most optimal flags

Option B:

  • Using the compiler flags from 0.1, test against a variety of other packages to prove optimization

* 0.3

  • Modify .rpmmacros file and submit for approval
