In our case, however, we want the stack overflow to happen, so we add a dummy volatile read statement at the end of the function, which the compiler cannot remove. Thus, the function is no longer _tail recursive_, and the transformation into a loop is prevented. We also add the `allow(unconditional_recursion)` attribute to silence the compiler warning that the function recurses endlessly.
