Folks,
I am using 2.4.20 on a pentium with 256M ram. I am calling a function fxxx() in the user_mode, which results in an ioctl to a driver in kernel space. The function which handles this function is k_fxx(), and this function calls some other nested functions. IMHO somewhere in this call thread the stack overflows and the process [which called fxxx] coredumps. How can I verify this hypothesis ? Is it possible to change the size of the kernel for user process? can I set it per process ?
