Subject: [PATCH] [v2] ethtool: reduce stack usage with clang
Date: Thu,  7 Mar 2019 16:58:35 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190307160017.3120362-1-arnd@arndb.de> (raw)

clang inlines the dev_ethtool() more aggressively than gcc does, leading
to a larger amount of used stack space:

net/core/ethtool.c:2536:24: error: stack frame size of 1216 bytes in function 'dev_ethtool' [-Werror,-Wframe-larger-than=]

Marking the sub-functions that require the most stack space as
noinline_for_stack gives us reasonable behavior on all compilers.

Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de>

v2: don't annotate dev_ethtool itself, as pointed out by Michal Kubecek
