Hi Dave, Sorry to double asking. Adding below build flag to Makefile can silent the warning: index 38d534f2c113..f8a40d15fdfc 100644 --- a/arch/x86/virt/vmx/tdx/Makefile +++ b/arch/x86/virt/vmx/tdx/Makefile @@ -1,2 +1,3 @@ # SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0-only +CFLAGS_tdx.o += -Wframe-larger-than=4096 So to confirm you want to add this flag to Makefile and just make tdx_sysinfo and tdx_cmr_array as local variables? Another reason I am double asking is, 'tdx_global_keyid' in this series can also be a local variable in init_tdx_module() but currently it is a static (as KVM will need it too). If I change to use local variable in the patch "x86/virt/tdx: Reserve TDX module global KeyID" like below: --- a/arch/x86/virt/vmx/tdx/tdx.c +++ b/arch/x86/virt/vmx/tdx/tdx.c @@ -50,9 +50,6 @@ static DEFINE_MUTEX(tdx_module_lock); /* All TDX-usable memory regions */ static LIST_HEAD(tdx_memlist); -/* TDX module global KeyID.

Should I make the tdx_global_keyid as local variable too and merge patch "x86/virt/tdx: Reserve TDX module global KeyID" to the later patch?
