When compiling the ath11k driver using clang with KASAN enabled, the following warning is observed: drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath11k/wow.c:672:5: warning: stack frame size (1336) exceeds limit (1024) in 'ath11k_wow_op_suspend' [-Wframe-larger-than] This is similar to the issue found in ath12k/qmi.c that was discussed in [1] and fixed with [2]. The issue is that clang inlining can explode stack usage. ath11k_wow_op_suspend() itself is a pretty lightweight function, but it dispatches to several other functions which do the real work. One path in particular is: ath11k_wow_op_suspend() ath11k_wow_set_wakeups() ath11k_vif_wow_set_wakeups() ath11k_wow_convert_8023_to_80211() Of these, ath11k_wow_convert_8023_to_80211() has non-trivial stack usage, so mark it as 'noinline_for_stack' to prevent it from being inlined in ath11k_wow_op_suspend(), thereby eliminating the excessive stack usage.
