Well, I could be mistaken. But I couldn't see the inlining.
In GCC 11.3 and above I get something like:
======================
dlist_free_original.constprop.0:
push rbp
push rbx
...
sub rsp, 8
...
call do_line
======================
In GCC 11.2 and below it is something like:
=====================
dlist_free_original.constprop.0:
push rbp
...
push rbx
...
call do_line
===================
And I checked with the gdb debugger that the rsp is indeed misaligned at the
start of do_line(). The alignment was OK at the start of
"dlist_free_original.constprop.0".
======================
$ gdb busybox_unstripped
GNU gdb (Ubuntu 9.2-0ubuntu1~20.04.1) 9.2
...
(gdb) break dlist_free_original.constprop.0
Breakpoint 1 at 0x59a7ac
(gdb) break do_line
Breakpoint 2 at 0x59a474
(gdb) run patch -R -i input.patch
Breakpoint 1, 0x000000000059a7ac in dlist_free_original.constprop ()
(gdb) i r rsp
rsp 0x7fffffffd998 0x7fffffffd998
(gdb) c
Continuing.
Breakpoint 2, 0x000000000059a474 in do_line ()
(gdb) i r rsp
rsp 0x7fffffffd980 0x7fffffffd980
======================
