Subject: [PATCH v2] lib/crypto: blake2b: Limit frame size workaround to GCC
Date: Sun, 23 Nov 2025 19:25:17 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251123182515.548471-3-thorsten.blum@linux.dev> (raw)
The GCC regression only affected i386 and has been fixed since GCC 12.2.
However, modern GCC versions still generate large stack frames on other
architectures (e.g., 3440 bytes for blake2b_compress_generic() on m68k
with GCC 15.1.0). Clang handles these functions efficiently and should
work fine with the default warning threshold.
Limit the frame size workaround to GCC only.
Signed-off-by: Thorsten Blum <thorsten.blum@linux.dev>

Changes in v2:
- Restrict frame size workaround to GCC independent of its version or
the architecture
- Update patch title and description
- Link to v1: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20251122105530.441350-2-thorsten.blum@linux.dev/
