102 * may be elided from the assembly file. As of gcc 3.3, static data not so
103 * marked will not be elided, but this may change in a future gcc version.
105 * In prior versions of gcc, such functions and data would be emitted, but
106 * would be warned about except with attribute((unused)).

117 * variables. Such a function can be subject to common subexpression
118 * elimination and loop optimization just as an arithmetic operator
119 * would be.

127 * From the GCC manual:
129 * Many functions do not examine any values except their arguments,
130 * and have no effects except the return value. Basically this is
131 * just slightly more strict class than the `pure' attribute above,
132 * since function is not allowed to read global memory.
134 * Note that a function that has pointer arguments and examines the
135 * data pointed to must _not_ be declared `const'. Likewise, a
136 * function that calls a non-`const' function usually must not be
137 * `const'. It does not make sense for a `const' function to return
138 * `void'.
