Subject[PATCH] [v2] tracing: use %ps format string to print symbols
Date
From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de>

clang started warning about excessive stack usage in
hist_trigger_print_key()

kernel/trace/trace_events_hist.c:4723:13: error: stack frame size (1336) exceeds limit (1024) in function 'hist_trigger_print_key' [-Werror,-Wframe-larger-than]

The problem is that there are two 512-byte arrays on the stack if
hist_trigger_stacktrace_print() gets inlined. I don't think this has
changed in the past five years, but something probably changed the
inlining decisions made by the compiler, so the problem is now made
more obvious.

Rather than printing the symbol names into separate buffers, it
seems we can simply use the special %ps format string modifier
to print the pointers symbolically and get rid of both buffers.

Marking hist_trigger_stacktrace_print() would be a simpler
way of avoiding the warning, but that would not address the
excessive stack usage.

Fixes: 69a0200c2e25 ("tracing: Add hist trigger support for stacktraces as keys")

Changes in v2:
- Use %pS instead of %ps to include offset in third string
- add (void*) cast to avoid compile-time warnings

This is still only compile-tested to ensure that the warning
goes away, I have not validated what it does to the formatting.
