108 * Allow us to avoid 'defined but not used' warnings on functions and data,
109 * as well as force them to be emitted to the assembly file.
111 * As of gcc 3.4, static functions that are not marked with attribute((used))
112 * may be elided from the assembly file. As of gcc 3.4, static data not so
113 * marked will not be elided, but this may change in a future gcc version.
115 * NOTE: Because distributions shipped with a backported unit-at-a-time
116 * compiler in gcc 3.3, we must define __used to be __attribute__((used))
117 * for gcc >=3.3 instead of 3.4.
119 * In prior versions of gcc, such functions and data would be emitted, but
120 * would be warned about except with attribute((unused)).
122 * Mark functions that are referenced only in inline assembly as __used so
123 * the code is emitted even though it appears to be unreferenced.

138 * From the GCC manual:
140 * Many functions have no effects except the return value and their
141 * return value depends only on the parameters and/or global
142 * variables. Such a function can be subject to common subexpression
143 * elimination and loop optimization just as an arithmetic operator
144 * would be.

162 * From the GCC manual:
164 * Many functions do not examine any values except their arguments,
165 * and have no effects except the return value. Basically this is
166 * just slightly more strict class than the `pure' attribute above,
167 * since function is not allowed to read global memory.
169 * Note that a function that has pointer arguments and examines the
170 * data pointed to must _not_ be declared `const'. Likewise, a
171 * function that calls a non-`const' function usually must not be
172 * `const'. It does not make sense for a `const' function to return
173 * `void'.
