[RFC PATCH] nfs: reduce stack usage of nfs_get_root

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Move fsinfo allocation off stack, reducing stack overhead of
nfs_get_root from 304 to 192 bytes.

Hi,

This is motivated by a stack overflow described here:
https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20230927001308.749910-1-npiggin@xxxxxxxxx/

NFS is not really a major culprit but it seems not too hard to
shrink the stack a little.

Thanks,
Nick
