- Fix DM integrity and verity targets to not use excessive stack when
they recheck in the error path.
dm-integrity, dm-verity: reduce stack usage for recheck
The newly added integrity_recheck() function has another larger stack
allocation, just like its caller integrity_metadata(). When it gets
inlined, the combination of the two exceeds the warning limit for 32-bit
architectures and possibly risks an overflow when this is called from
a deep call chain through a file system:
drivers/md/dm-integrity.c:1767:13: error: stack frame size (1048) exceeds limit (1024) in 'integrity_metadata' [-Werror,-Wframe-larger-than]
1767 | static void integrity_metadata(struct work_struct *w)
Since the caller at this point is done using its checksum buffer,
just reuse the same buffer in the new function to avoid the double
allocation.
[Mikulas: add "noinline" to integrity_recheck and verity_recheck.
These functions are only called on error, so they shouldn't bloat the
stack frame or code size of the caller.]
