As gcc doc [1] shows:
Most optimizations are completely disabled at -O0 or if an -O level is
not set on the command line, even if individual optimization flags are
specified.
Test result [2] shows, gcc>=11.1.0 deviates from the above description,
but before gcc 11.1.0, "-O0" still forcely uses frame pointer in the
_start function even if the individual optimize("omit-frame-pointer")
flag is specified.
The frame pointer related operations will change the stack pointer (e.g.
In x86_64, an extra "push %rbp" will be inserted at the beginning of
_start) and make it differs from the one we expected, as a result, break
the whole startup function.
To fix up this issue, as suggested by Thomas, the individual "Os" and
"omit-frame-pointer" optimize flags are used together on _start function
to disable frame pointer completely even if the -O0 is set on the
command line.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
