RE: [Linux-ia64] [PATCH] 2.5 - Another user stack size patch

["DESAI,RAJESH (HP-Cupertino,ex1)" <rajesh-n.desai@hp.com>]

So, what kind of apps need 1 TB stacks?

-R
--------------------------------------
David,

I hope this user stack size patch is better.  This one places the RBS
based on the max size of the stack.  The max size of the user stack
is 1TB.

The patch is against linux-ia64-2.5
