[PATCH net-next] net: sched: gred: dynamically allocate tc_gred_qopt_offload

From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@kernel.org>
Date: 2021-10-19 15:37:50

From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de>

The tc_gred_qopt_offload structure has grown too big to be on the
stack for 32-bit architectures after recent changes.

net/sched/sch_gred.c:903:13: error: stack frame size (1180) exceeds limit (1024) in 'gred_destroy' [-Werror,-Wframe-larger-than]
net/sched/sch_gred.c:310:13: error: stack frame size (1212) exceeds limit (1024) in 'gred_offload' [-Werror,-Wframe-larger-than]

Use dynamic allocation to avoid this. Unfortunately, this introduces
a new problem in gred_destroy(), which cannot recover from a failure
to allocate memory, and that may be worse than the potential
stack overflow risk.

Not sure what a better approach might be.

Fixes: 50dc9a8572aa ("net: sched: Merge Qdisc::bstats and Qdisc::cpu_bstats data types")
Fixes: 67c9e6270f30 ("net: sched: Protect Qdisc::bstats with u64_stats")

Now we can return an error even tho the SW path has changed.
Qdisc offloads should not affect the SW changes AFAIR.

If we need to alloc dynamically let's allocate the buffer at init and
keep it in struct gred_sched. The offload calls are all under RTNL lock
so in fact we could even use static data, but let's do it right and
have a buffer per qdisc.
