             Bug #: 51846

           Product: gcc
           Version: 4.5.3
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P3

Testcase

While trying to debug a different issue I've been having with instrumentation
I've run into this problem. It seems that with any sort of optimization enabled
the compiler doesn't obey the no_instrument_function attribute. Attached is a
small testcase. The output I get when compiling with and without optimization
or instrumentation is this:

$ gcc -O0 -o main main.c 
$ ./main 
Start
End
$ gcc -Os -o main main.c 
$ ./main 
Start
End
$ gcc -Os -finstrument-functions -o main main.c 
$ ./main 
Segmentation fault
$ gcc -O0 -finstrument-functions -o main main.c 
$ ./main 
-> 0x400674 0x7fcbd75eb09d
Start
-> 0x400652 0x4006a1
<- 0x400652 0x4006a1
End
<- 0x400674 0x7fcbd75eb09d

Attached to a debugger or when looking at the assembly you can easily see that
the __cyg_profile_func_enter function has a call to itself when compiled with
any optimization setting other than O0.
