From: Colin King <hidden>
Date: 2021-08-01 15:17:11
From: Colin Ian King <redacted> Don't populate the array random_data on the stack but instead it static const. Makes the object code smaller by 66 bytes. Before: text data bss dec hex filename 52895 10976 0 63871 f97f ../qlogic/qlcnic/qlcnic_ethtool.o After: text data bss dec hex filename 52701 11104 0 63805 f93d ../qlogic//qlcnic/qlcnic_ethtool.o (gcc version 10.2.0) Signed-off-by: Colin Ian King <redacted> --- drivers/net/ethernet/qlogic/qlcnic/qlcnic_ethtool.c | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-)
