--- Comment #18 from commit-h...@freebsd.org --- A commit references this bug: Author: cem Date: Mon Dec 11 04:32:37 UTC 2017 New revision: 326758 URL: https://svnweb.freebsd.org/changeset/base/326758 Log: i386: Bump KSTACK_PAGES default to match amd64 Logically, extend r286288 to cover all threads, by default. The world has largely moved on from i386. Most FreeBSD users and developers test on amd64 hardware. For better or worse, we have written a non-trivial amount of kernel code that relies on stacks larger than 8 kB, and it "just works" on amd64, so there has been little incentive to shrink it. amd64 had its KSTACK_PAGES bumped to 4 back in Peter's initial AMD64 commit, r114349, in 2003. Since that time, i386 has limped along on a stack half the size. We've even observed the stack overflows years ago, but neglected to fix the issue; see the 20121223 and 20150728 entries in UPDATING. If anyone is concerned with this change, I suggest they configure their AMD64 kernels with KSTACK_PAGES 2 and fix the fallout there first. Eugene has identified a list of high stack usage functions in the first PR below.
