This looks related to a warning we saw on powerpc. I've tried digging into it a little bit more, but all I found is that the use of __builtin_bswap32() changes the inlining decisions but doesn't actively cause worse code. In fact, if I force the inlining like this: --- a/drivers/net/ethernet/chelsio/cxgb4/sge.c +++ b/drivers/net/ethernet/chelsio/cxgb4/sge.c @@ -2257,7 +2257,7 @@ static void *write_eo_wr(struct adapter *adap, struct sge_eosw_txq *eosw_txq, return cpl; } -static int ethofld_hard_xmit(struct net_device *dev, +static __attribute__((flatten)) __always_inline int ethofld_hard_xmit(struct net_device *dev, struct sge_eosw_txq *eosw_txq) { struct port_info *pi = netdev2pinfo(dev); @@ -2393,7 +2393,7 @@ static int ethofld_hard_xmit(struct net_device *dev, return ret; } -static void ethofld_xmit(struct net_device *dev, struct sge_eosw_txq *eosw_txq) +static noinline void ethofld_xmit(struct net_device *dev, struct sge_eosw_txq *eosw_txq) { struct sk_buff *skb; int pktcount, ret; I see a different effect: the function's frame grows to 2232 bytes with the open-coded bswap32 slightly less at 2200 bytes with the builtin bswap32, all because of too many variables getting spilled. On the other hand, marking ethofld_hard_xmit as flatten+noinline, I don't get these spills with either version of bswap32, and the stack usage of ethofld_hard_xmit()/ethofld_xmit() goes down to 472+112 bytes. If I remove -fsanitize=alignment, the total stack size for these functions is no more than 368 bytes regardless of the inlining or the bswap32() implementation. I would conclude that there is something wrong in clang that leads to badly optimized code in this file, but that my __builtin_bswap32() change is only what triggers the right conditions here, not the root cause.
