There is none. We can setup a different optimizer pass pipeline for LTO, but the target specific part (i.e. the backend) isn’t supposed to behave differently.

This is an issue in general with LTO where options from the command line (like -fno-builtins, or -fveclib=xxxx) are not correctly propagated to LTO.

What kind of behavior do you want to enable exactly?
