[PATCH] [v2] crypto: serpent - mark __serpent_setkey_sbox noinline

From: Arnd Bergmann
Date: Tue Jun 18 2019 - 07:25:12 EST


The same bug that gcc hit in the past is apparently now showing
up with clang, which decides to inline __serpent_setkey_sbox:

crypto/serpent_generic.c:268:5: error: stack frame size of 2112 bytes in function '__serpent_setkey' [-Werror,-Wframe-larger-than=]

Marking it 'noinline' reduces the stack usage from 2112 bytes to
192 and 96 bytes, respectively, and seems to generate more
useful object code.

Fixes: c871c10e4ea7 ("crypto: serpent - improve __serpent_setkey with UBSAN")
