Linux kernel source tree

As described in [1], compiling the ath12k driver using clang with KASAN enabled warns about some functions with excessive stack usage, with the worst case being: drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath12k/qmi.c:3546:13: warning: stack frame size (2456) exceeds limit (1024) in 'ath12k_qmi_driver_event_work' [-Wframe-larger-than] Nathan [2] highlighted work done by Arnd [3] to address similar issues in other portions of the kernel. ath12k_qmi_driver_event_work() itself is a pretty lightweight function, but it dispatches to several other functions which do the real work: ath12k_qmi_driver_event_work() ath12k_qmi_event_server_arrive() ath12k_qmi_host_cap_send() ath12k_qmi_event_mem_request() ath12k_qmi_respond_fw_mem_request() ath12k_qmi_event_load_bdf() ath12k_qmi_request_target_cap() ath12k_qmi_load_bdf_qmi() ath12k_qmi_wlanfw_m3_info_send() Mark all of those underlying functions as 'noinline_for_stack' to prevent them from being inlined in ath12k_qmi_driver_event_work(), thereby eliminating the excessive stack usage.

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 reStructuredText 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.
