Commit Message

Arnd Bergmann June 17, 2019, 11:08 a.m. UTC 
Putting an empty 'mlx5_flow_spec' structure on the stack is a bit
wasteful and causes a warning on 32-bit architectures when building
with clang -fsanitize-coverage:

drivers/net/ethernet/mellanox/mlx5/core/eswitch_offloads_termtbl.c: In function 'mlx5_eswitch_termtbl_create':
drivers/net/ethernet/mellanox/mlx5/core/eswitch_offloads_termtbl.c:90:1: error: the frame size of 1032 bytes is larger than 1024 bytes [-Werror=frame-larger-than=]

Since the structure is never written to, we can statically allocate
it to avoid the stack usage. To be on the safe side, mark all
subsequent function arguments that we pass it into as 'const'
as well.

LGTM, just make sure please to have a reverse xmas tree here.

Mark, please let me know if you are ok with such API constrain to flow
steering (spec must be const).

Thanks,
Saeed.

I don't think the steering core layer should change the matching asked by the user.
Even without the frame size issue I like this change, thanks!

LGTM

Saeed, once Arnd fixes the reverse christmas tree issue, I assume you will take
this in via your tree?
