Subject: [PATCH 34/34] autofs-5.1.2 - increase worker thread per-thread stack size
Date: Mon, 24 Apr 2017 09:03:07 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <149299578790.23475.6749618979232753510.stgit@pluto.themaw.net> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <149299547753.23475.9924538846721477415.stgit@pluto.themaw.net>

automount(8) uses a worker thread per-thread stack size of 1M which is
sufficient for its needs.

But some glibc functions (such as nscd_getgr_r()) use alloca() to allocate
working storage that can have an arbitary size. Since alloca() never fails
there is no way to check for stack overflow so I think this usage is wrong
and needs to be fixed.

All that can be done by automount to avoid this is to increase the stack size.
