[PATCH] samples: rust: debugfs: fix excessive stack use

From: Gary Guo

Date: Thu Jul 16 2026 - 12:05:33 EST


From: Gary Guo <gary@xxxxxxxxxxx>

The current implementation creates a 4K array and move it into the box.
Klint reports that this causes excesssive stack usage:

warning: stack size of `create_file_write` is 4472 bytes, exceeds the 2048-byte limit
--> samples/rust/rust_debugfs_scoped.rs:54:1
|
54 | / fn create_file_write(
55 | | mod_data: &ModuleData,
56 | | reader: &mut kernel::uaccess::UserSliceReader,
57 | | ) -> Result {
| |___________^
|
= note: the stack size is inferred from instruction `sub $0x1178,%rsp` at .text+2205

Use pin-init to create the array in-place instead.
