Additional measurements showed GCC's -Os inliner re-inlines most IIFE
chunks back into setup() by choice, and the structural scoping alone
captures nearly all of the peak-stack benefit on esp32 without the
flash cost of forcing all chunks to stay as real functions.
Apollo (esp32-s3, -Os) with vs without noinline:
peak setup stack 176 B (noinline) vs 304 B (scope-only)
flash delta +388 B (noinline) vs -504 B (scope-only)
chunks kept 86 vs 20
Issue #15796 is an LVGL-setup class of bug that has only surfaced on
esp32 after years in the field; the extra guarantee that noinline
provides is not worth the flash cost in practice. Also rename the
helper from _wrap_in_noinline_iifes to _wrap_in_iifes to match.
The C++ standard-attribute spelling [[gnu::noinline]] placed between a
lambda's parameter list and body binds to the return type, not the
call operator. GCC 14 silently ignores it and emits -Wattributes
warnings at every chunk site. Switch to GCC's __attribute__((...))
syntax which binds to operator() as intended.
Measured impact on apollo-r-pro-1-eth (esp32-s3, -Os) vs the broken
[[gnu::noinline]] version: setup() frame 160 B -> 32 B, peak stack
304 B -> 176 B (another -42%). Flash grows by 888 B because all 86
chunks now stay as separate functions instead of GCC inlining the
small ones (which it was free to do when the attribute was ignored).
Net vs baseline -Os: peak stack 1264 B -> 176 B (-86%); flash
+388 B (<0.05% of a typical esp32 partition).
Generated setup() is a single monolithic function whose stack frame
scales super-linearly with config size. On a 5,943-line apollo build
the frame reached 1,264 B at -Os; extrapolation onto larger configs
(e.g. the 16k-line LVGL config in #15796) plausibly overflows the
8 KB loop task stack before safe_mode can increment its boot counter.
Emit a ComponentMarker sentinel at the start of each component's
to_code output, then have cpp_main_section wrap each component's
block (and sub-splits of up to 50 statements within each block) in a
noinline IIFE lambda. Each lambda's ENTRY frame is released on
return, bounding peak stack to setup() frame + max chunk frame.
Measured on apollo-r-pro-1-eth (esp32-s3, -Os):
setup() frame 1264 B -> 160 B
max chunk frame n/a -> 144 B
peak setup stack 1264 B -> 304 B (-76%)
total flash 792,471 B -> 791,995 B (-476 B)
The brace-depth guard in _wrap_in_noinline_iifes ensures we never
split between the RawStatement("{") / RawStatement("}") pair emitted
by cg.with_local_variable() (currently only wifi), so scoped locals
stay intact.
