i don't know about gcc, but iirc for clang you don't even need to do
that. it assumes it knows what various functions mean, and inlines
trivial stuff like this anyway...
/tmp$ cat x.c
#include <math.h>
double foo(double x) { return fabs(x); }
/tmp$ cc -O2 -S -o - x.c
.section __TEXT,__text,regular,pure_instructions
.build_version macos, 14, 0 sdk_version 14, 4
.globl _foo ; -- Begin function foo
.p2align 2
_foo: ; @foo
.cfi_startproc
; %bb.0:
fabs d0, d0
ret
.cfi_endproc
; -- End function
.subsections_via_symbols
/tmp$
(the same is true even at -O0, there's just more boilerplate around it
that way.)
bionic actually uses __builtin_fabs() [and friends] to _implement_
these functions, should someone be foolish enough to be using a
function pointer to call them, but we don't actually expect these
functions to ever be called.
