  27      - The enumeral corresponding to this parameter.
  28
  29      - The name that can be used to set this parameter using the
  30        command-line option `--param <name>=<value>'.
  31
  32      - A help string explaining how the parameter is used.
  33

  40    real machine instructions) that is eligible for inlining
  41    by the tree inliner.
  42    The default value is 300.
  43    Only functions marked inline (or methods defined in the class
  44    definition for C++) are affected by this, unless you set the
  45    -finline-functions (included in -O3) compiler option.
  46    There are more restrictions to inlining: If inlined functions
  47    call other functions, the already inlined instructions are
  48    counted and once the recursive inline limit (see
  49    "max-inline-insns" parameter) is exceeded, the acceptable size

  59    number of inlinable instructions in the tree inliner.
  60    This is done by a linear function, see "max-inline-slope" parameter.
  61    It is necessary in order to limit the compile-time resources, that
  62    could otherwise become very high.
  63    It is recommended to set this value to twice the value of the single
  64    function limit (set by the "max-inline-insns-single" parameter) or
  65    higher. The default value is 600.
  66    Higher values mean that more inlining is done, resulting in
  67    better performance of the code, at the expense of higher
  68    compile-time resource (time, memory) requirements and larger
  69    binaries.
