Hi!

I'm developing some code running in kernel that use a lot of stack. And it
seems i run into stack overflow. This results in some proc structure
related parts overwrite (particulary p->p_stats->p_timer[ITIMER_PROF]) and
unexpected signals. (Otherwise, it usually page faults inside
swi_net_next())

Could somebody explain how this can happen (i thought i would panic and
say ``stack oveflow'') and how this can be avoided?

Thanks in forward!

Bye!
