When compiling the ath11k driver using clang with KASAN enabled, the
following warning is observed:
drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath11k/dp_rx.c:5244:5: warning: stack frame size (1304) exceeds limit (1024) in 'ath11k_dp_rx_process_mon_status' [-Wframe-larger-than]
This is similar to the issue found in ath12k/qmi.c that was discussed
in [1] and fixed with [2]. The issue is that clang inlining can
explode stack usage.
ath11k_dp_rx_process_mon_status() itself is a pretty
lightweight function, but it dispatches to several other functions
which do the real work:
ath11k_dp_rx_process_mon_status()
ath11k_dp_rx_reap_mon_status_ring()
ath11k_dp_rx_mon_dest_process()
ath11k_dp_rx_mon_mpdu_pop() *
ath11k_dp_rx_mon_deliver()
ath11k_dp_rx_mon_merg_msdus()
ath11k_dp_rx_deliver_msdu()
ath11k_dp_rx_update_peer_stats()
Of these, only ath11k_dp_rx_mon_mpdu_pop() has non-trivial stack
usage, so mark that function as 'noinline_for_stack' to prevent it
from being inlined in ath11k_dp_rx_process_mon_status(), thereby
eliminating the excessive stack usage.
Compile tested only.
