This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled x86: Increase exception stack sizes to the 5.14-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: x86-increase-exception-stack-sizes.patch and it can be found in the queue-5.14 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 98c787d57ec86acb317d88bb7c02b4c5cc3ec386 Author: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Wed Sep 15 16:19:46 2021 +0200 x86: Increase exception stack sizes [ Upstream commit 7fae4c24a2b84a66c7be399727aca11e7a888462 ] It turns out that a single page of stack is trivial to overflow with all the tracing gunk enabled. Raise the exception stacks to 2 pages, which is still half the interrupt stacks, which are at 4 pages.
