Kconfig picks up the first default entry which has true 'if' condition. Since (!64BIT || 64BIT) covers all the possible cases, this patch is just adding dead code. > help > - Tell gcc to warn at build time for stack frames larger than this. > + Tell the compiler to warn at build time for stack frames larger than this. > Setting this too low will cause a lot of warnings. > Setting it to 0 disables the warning. > > -- > 2.38.0.135.g90850a2211-goog >

What we actually need is to forcefully disable CONFIG_FRAME_WARN under KMSAN, but adding constructs like "select FRAME_WARN 0" or "select FRAME_WARN=0" doesn't work, right? I'll move "default 0 if KMSAN" to the beginning of FRAME_WARN declaration then. > > > > > > > help > > - Tell gcc to warn at build time for stack frames larger than this. > > + Tell the compiler to warn at build time for stack frames larger than this. > > Setting this too low will cause a lot of warnings. > > Setting it to 0 disables the warning. > > > > -- > > 2.38.0.135.g90850a2211-goog > > > > > -- > Best Regards > Masahiro Yamada

KMSAN adds a lot of instrumentation to the code, which results in increased stack usage (up to 2048 bytes and more in some cases). It's hard to predict how big the stack frames can be, so we disable the warnings for KMSAN instead.
