In a release build I'm getting the following informational warning from GCC 4.4.7.
note: variable tracking size limit exceeded with -fvar-tracking-assignments, retrying without
Have I exceeded the variable name length supported by variable tracking assignment?
If so, is there a way to adjust the supported size?
This is just a note from the compiler that the debug info for the particular function will have lower quality, because your code of function is too large/complex so variable tracking reached limit of hash table slots.
The max is large and it can be raised with options (like --param=max-vartrack-size=600000
) but you could end up with very slow compilation or the compiler could take very lot of memory to compute the debug info location lists.
So unless you have trouble debugging the code just ignore that warning.
