我想在編譯後優化elf的大小。var在printf中聲明不能被GCC收集垃圾

但是,在printf中聲明的字符串被移動到.rodata節,並且不會被鏈接器優化。

#include <stdio.h> 
#include <stdlib.h> 

static char str1[] = "String1"; //goto .data.str1 
const char str2[] = "String2"; //goto .rodata.str2 

int main(){ 

printf("%s",str1); //"%s" in .rodata 
printf("%s",str2); 
printf("On-the fly string"); //goto .rodata 

return 0; 

} 

void unused_function(){ 
    const char str3[] = "String Not Used"; //goto .text.unused_function and is removed by the linker 
    printf("I would like to optimize this string"); //goto .rodata and isn't removed by the linker 
    printf("%s", str3); // 
} 

我編譯和鏈接這些論點:

gcc -fdata-sections -ffunction-sections -Wl,--gc-sections hello.c -o hello.out 

這是編譯後:

所以你可以後看到函數「unused_function()」 d爲const被除去,但我想刪除最後一個字符串中聲明的字符串「我想優化該字符串」

UPDATE

第一個例子可使用-fmerge常數,因爲該字符串被容易地除去在printf內部將根據它們的長度放入一個部分,但如果兩個字符串的長度相同並且使用了一個,它將不起作用。

#include <stdio.h> 
#include <stdlib.h> 

void used_function(); 

static char str1[] = "String1"; //goto .data.str1 const char str2[] = "String2"; //goto .rodata.str2 

int main(){ 

printf("%s",str1); //"%s" in .rodata printf("%s",str2); printf("On-the fly string"); //goto .rodata 

used_function(); 

return 0; 

} 

void unused_function(){ 
    const char str3[] = "String Not Used"; //goto .text.unused_function and is removed by the linker 
    printf("I would like to optimize this string 1"); //goto .rodata.str1.8 and isn't removed by the linker 
    printf("%s", str3); // } 

void used_function(){ 
    printf("A string used here with the same size 2"); //goto .rodata.str1.8 }

字符串還在這裏!

一種方法是用一般的優化一起啓用鏈接時優化:'GCC -02 -flto的hello.c -o hello.out',我懷疑它會被淘汰,如果你可以用'-fdata-sections -ffunction-sections ...'來啓用優化,加上'-O2' – nos 2014-09-29 13:31:09

使用編譯器選項-O2來優化您的二進制文件。這將消除僅由未調用unused_function引用的字符串。

他的「問題」是即使有優化,「我想優化這個字符串」仍然是即使它所在的函數被刪除了,它也會被編譯進去。他不希望那個字符串在他的二進制文件中。 – 2014-09-29 13:38:46

@WilliamEverett:將'-O2'添加到命令行確實使字符串從二進制文件中消失。 (GCC Ubuntu 4.8.2-19ubuntu1。)正確的答案,+1。 (有趣的是,「我如何優化這個」的答案實際上是「啓用優化器」。誰會想到.--)) – DevSolar 2014-09-29 13:40:28

正如所解釋的,只是因爲字符串具有唯一的大小 – Clement 2014-10-03 08:27:43
