do_execute_actions() function can be called recursively multiple
times while executing actions that require pipeline forking or
recirculations. It may also be re-entered multiple times if the packet
leaves openvswitch module and re-enters it through a different port.
Currently, there is a 256-byte array allocated on stack in this
function that is supposed to hold NSH header. Compilers tend to
pre-allocate that space right at the beginning of the function:
a88: 48 81 ec b0 01 00 00 sub $0x1b0,%rsp
NSH is not a very common protocol, but the space is allocated on every
recursive call or re-entry multiplying the wasted stack space.
Move the stack allocation to push_nsh() function that is only used
if NSH actions are actually present. push_nsh() is also a simple
function without a possibility for re-entry, so the stack is returned
right away.
With this change the preallocated space is reduced by 256 B per call:
b18: 48 81 ec b0 00 00 00 sub $0xb0,%rsp

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
