Bug ID: 214661
Summary: THREAD_SIZE on x86_64 is 4*PAGE_SIZE, not 2*PAGE_SIZE
Product: Documentation
Version: unspecified
Hardware: All
OS: Linux
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P1
Component: man-pages
Assignee: documentation_man-pages@kernel-bugs.osdl.org
Reporter: me@ieevee.com
Regression: No
According to '/root/linux/arch/x86/include/asm/page_64_types.h', THREAD_SIZE on
x86_64 now is 4*PAGE_SIZE:
#ifdef CONFIG_KASAN
#define KASAN_STACK_ORDER 1
#else
#define KASAN_STACK_ORDER 0
#endif
#define THREAD_SIZE_ORDER (2 + KASAN_STACK_ORDER)
#define THREAD_SIZE (PAGE_SIZE << THREAD_SIZE_ORDER)
However, the Documentation/x86/kernel-stacks.rst shows that THREAD_SIZE on
x86_64 is 2*PAGE_SIZE:
Like all other architectures, x86_64 has a kernel stack for every
active thread. These thread stacks are THREAD_SIZE (2*PAGE_SIZE) big.
I am not quite sure which is correct, Maybe the document needs an upgrade?
Thanks a lot for any reply.

This is incorrect.
The internal kernel documentation is not part of the man-pages.
I checked to see if the manual pages need an update, but I couldn't find
anything about THREAD_SIZE:
alx@sqli:~/src/linux/man-pages$ grep -rn THREAD_SIZE
alx@sqli:~/src/linux/man-pages$
I can't edit the component, so maybe you need to close the bug and open
a new one in a different component.
Anyway, thanks for the report!
