Proposal Would Let ARM64 Linux Kernel Stack Size Be Set At Boot

Original: Phoronix: Proposal To Set ARM64 Kernel Stack Size At Boot Time To Reduce Memory Consumption https://www. phoronix.com/ne

A proposal has been made for the Linux kernel's ARM64 architecture to allow the kernel stack size to be configured at boot time rather than fixed at compile time. The aim is to reduce memory consumption, since devices could use smaller stacks where needed. The idea is being discussed among kernel developers and Linux watchers following coverage by Phoronix.

Why now: Kernel memory optimisation proposals for ARM64 devices draw attention from Linux developers and embedded systems users.
