Clang sometimes makes very different inlining decisions from gcc. In case of the aegis crypto algorithms, it decides to turn the innermost primitives (and, xor, ...) into separate functions but inline most of the rest. This results in a huge amount of variables spilled on the stack, leading to rather slow execution as well as kernel stack usage beyond the 32-bit warning limit when CONFIG_KASAN is enabled: crypto/aegis256.c:123:13: warning: stack frame size of 648 bytes in function 'crypto_aegis256_encrypt_chunk' [-Wframe-larger-than=] crypto/aegis256.c:366:13: warning: stack frame size of 1264 bytes in function 'crypto_aegis256_crypt' [-Wframe-larger-than=] crypto/aegis256.c:187:13: warning: stack frame size of 656 bytes in function 'crypto_aegis256_decrypt_chunk' [-Wframe-larger-than=] crypto/aegis128l.c:135:13: warning: stack frame size of 832 bytes in function 'crypto_aegis128l_encrypt_chunk' [-Wframe-larger-than=] crypto/aegis128l.c:415:13: warning: stack frame size of 1480 bytes in function 'crypto_aegis128l_crypt' [-Wframe-larger-than=] crypto/aegis128l.c:218:13: warning: stack frame size of 848 bytes in function 'crypto_aegis128l_decrypt_chunk' [-Wframe-larger-than=] crypto/aegis128.c:116:13: warning: stack frame size of 584 bytes in function 'crypto_aegis128_encrypt_chunk' [-Wframe-larger-than=] crypto/aegis128.c:351:13: warning: stack frame size of 1064 bytes in function 'crypto_aegis128_crypt' [-Wframe-larger-than=] crypto/aegis128.c:177:13: warning: stack frame size of 592 bytes in function 'crypto_aegis128_decrypt_chunk' [-Wframe-larger-than=] Forcing the primitives to all get inlined avoids the issue and the resulting code is similar to what gcc produces.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
