I know that PowerPC (32-bit) currently only support fixed sized (default)
thread stacks. And PowerPC64 is following the same route unless I get
enlightened real soon now ...
So please define "sane architecture". This there any more than support for
pthread_attr_setstacksize()?
Or do you refer to "floating stacks" and which of those have Linux
implementation that I can look at for inspiration?
Also is there "white paper" or design document for this topic?
