Subject: [Qemu-devel] [PATCH V8 6/6] coroutine: reduce stack size to 60kB
Date: Mon, 26 Sep 2016 13:44:32 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1474890272-22952-7-git-send-email-pl@kamp.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1474890272-22952-1-git-send-email-pl@kamp.de>
evaluation with the recently introduced maximum stack usage monitoring revealed
that the actual used stack size was never above 4kB so allocating 1MB stack
for each coroutine is a lot of wasted memory. So reduce the stack size to
60kB which should still give enough head room. The guard page added
in qemu_alloc_stack will catch a potential stack overflow introduced
by this commit. The 60kB + guard page will result in an allocation of
64kB per coroutine on systems where a page is 4kB.
