I have some concerns about Linux (2.4 based kernel)
and stack usage, in particular with multithreaded
programs. Per the gcc documentation, the compile
option -fstack-check should be used with multithreaded
programs so that the OS can reliably tell when an
arbitrary thread's stack space is being extended.
However, it seems that whenever I specify the
-fstack-check option, the compiled program will not
run. It instead seg faults when main() is called.
Should this compiler option be used on my platform?
Platform: Suse 9.0 (x86 2.4.21 kernel), gcc 3.3.1,
multithreading using the pthread library.
