The naked attribute is ignored on the intel architecture (according to
documentation). The MS VC++ compiler supports the naked attribute, and the
functionality is used there quite frequent.
A quick search on the internet shows that there is a lot of people waiting for
this feature (including me).
I hope this feature will be implemented soon. It's supported for ARM cpus and
therefore I hope it won't be a problem to add support for x86 processors.

A quick question here. Why not use a .s file instead?

> A quick question here. Why not use a .s file instead?
REASON #1
Sometimes people want to use --combine -fwhole-program, but the documentation
for -fwhole-program starts with this:
"Assume that the current compilation unit represents whole program being
compiled."
It is also implied, and stated elsewhere, that this only works for C. Thus it
is apparently not allowed to have assembly, C++, Objective-C, Objective-C++, or
weirder stuff.
REASON #2
Using a .s file does not allow the naked function to have static scope.
REASON #3
Even when it will work OK, the separate file is simply annoying. People
naturally want to group functions together without being needlessly restricted.
