Use <code>false</code> when the machine allows code +to be generated with no frame pointer, and doing so saves some time or space. +Use <code>true</code> when there is no possible advantage to avoiding a frame +pointer. +</p> +<p>In certain cases, the compiler does not know how to produce valid code +without a frame pointer. The compiler recognizes those cases and +automatically gives the function a frame pointer regardless of what +<code>targetm.frame_pointer_required</code> returns. You don’t need to worry about +them. +</p> +<p>In a function that does not require a frame pointer, the frame pointer +register can be allocated for ordinary usage, unless you mark it as a +fixed register.
