    As far as the tools are concerned they *are* used, and you are telling the tools that they are exported (if the symbol of the function is not marked as static). So the tools cannot optimize this function out.

    I'm not sure there is a "magic" switch to make this error go away - it's a fatal error, and what you are trying to achieve isn't really how a typical compiler and linker is designed to work...
