Subject: [PATCH] lockdep: avoid struct return in lock_stats()
Date: Tue, 10 Jun 2025 11:29:21 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250610092941.2642847-1-arnd@kernel.org> (raw)
From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de>
Returning a large structure from the lock_stats() function causes clang
to have multiple copies of it on the stack and copy between them, which
can end up exceeding the frame size warning limit:
kernel/locking/lockdep.c:300:25: error: stack frame size (1464) exceeds limit (1280) in 'lock_stats' [-Werror,-Wframe-larger-than]
300 | struct lock_class_stats lock_stats(struct lock_class *class)
Change the calling conventions to directly operate on the caller's copy,
which apparently is what gcc does already.
