No it doesn't.
Look a bit more closely.
It builds a struct (singular) MANY MANY times. It also then builds up a
huge e1000_opt_list[] array, even though it is const and should be static
(and const).
I know. I wrote a patch to FIX it.
Here's the patch. It shrinks the stack from 1152 bytes to 192 bytes (the
first version, that only did the e1000_option part, got it down to 600
bytes). About half comes from not using multiple "e1000_option"
structures, the other half comes from turning the "e1000_opt_list[]"
arrays into "static const" instead, so that gcc doesn't copy them onto the
stack.
Most of the patch is actually doing things like turning
struct struct e1000_option opt = {
(which declares a _new_ e1000_option variable each time) into
opt = (struct e1000_option) {
which just re-uses the single variable.
It becomes slightly larger than that, because some places the "opt = .."
had to be moved around, since it's no longer a variable declaration, but a
regular assignment.
The rest is just adding "const" to the right places, and turning
struct e1000_opt_list speed_list[] = ..
into
static const struct e1000_opt_list speed_list[] = ..
instead, and fixing the indentation to be more straightforward.
I have not tested the dang thing, but I think it's correct. And it turns
stack usage from "totally horrible and broken" into "pretty reasonable".
