In -fno-exceptions -fno-asynchronous-unwind-tables -g0 mode,
GCC does not emit .cfi_* directives.
% diff <(gcc -fno-asynchronous-unwind-tables -dM -E a.c) <(gcc -dM -E a.c) 130a131 > #define __GCC_HAVE_DWARF2_CFI_ASM 1
This macro is useful because code can decide whether inline asm should include .cfi_* directives.
.cfi_* directives without .cfi_startproc can cause assembler errors.
