probably also necessary for vectorsRam just below.

Basically everything that's implicitly linked needs to be marked as used? Seems like a lot of work…

Can you perhaps extract the symbols of the resulting ELF files with/without LTO and diff them? That would perhaps give you a more definitive list of lost symbols.
It's scons symbols but we seem to not have it for CMake.
Otherwise try: arm-none-eabi-nm -S -C --size-sort -td file.elf

I don't see much difference any more. vectorsRam indeed is required to be used, I just use the ROM-mapped vector table in my project.

One more symbol missing is modm_abandon, but I think it is just optimised out as an empty function.

Maybe, Undefined_Handler also requires the attribute. But I am not 100% sure

I'll have a look myself tomorrow to check if we can enable LTO by default at least for the release build.
