"Very few projects use -O3" - literally all CMake projects(Meson as well) compile with -O3 in Release mode.
-O3 is an issue if you have code that hits undefined behavior.Last edited by Alliancemd; 06 June 2021, 03:12 AM.

Torvalds has got the responsibility over the Linux project and he is the one bickering about a lack of care. The end. There is no need to derail this and to turn this into a brown-nosing competition for fear of your idols being called out for the dumb shit they talk. Everybody talks shit and Torvalds is no exception.
It would literally be impossible for a single person to review all the code that goes into the kernel. He just manages merging it all together.Last edited by smitty3268; 06 June 2021, 04:32 AM.

So, who cares about being "careful" more, I wonder?

But your comments here are equally dumb. This had jack shit to do with Torvalds, and trying to bring him into it makes you look silly.
