I'm sorry, but this is not a solution. Kernel is not x86-only; there are architectures with far bigger minimal stack frame size. E.g. on sparc64 every fucking stack frame is at least 176 bytes. So your 100 calls deep call chain will happily overflow the damn stack all by itself - kernel stack on sparc64 is 16Kb total, including struct thread_info living there. _______________________________________________ Containers mailing list Containers@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.linuxfoundation.org/mailman/listinfo/containers
