[openib-general] OpenSM: No support for debug build

[Eitan Zahavi]

Hi Hal,

More issues with the build environment:

OpenSM used to support two modes of compilation: debug and release (called
"free")
The main difference is in tradeoff performance vs debugability.
debug uses:
 -D_DEBUG_ = control some extra operations and data stored in complib useful
for debugging. 
	one example is CL_ASSERT which is disabled if _DEBUG_ not set
-g = include debug information in executables and libs
-O0 = prevent optimization

release mode uses:
	-O6 = max optimization for speed up

I propose to add -enable-debug to the configure.in and use it to control the
compilation flags.
