       > > ping again, @davids5 this patch is pending for more than two months, 
could you answer my question a little bit timely?

get the the margin. Why don't you try it,
   
   Yes, I want to try, but it can't work and I have give my answer two months 
ago, but you ignore it silently. So I have to copy my response here again, 
please you give me your comment one by one, so I can try with your new propose:
   1.Many arch don't have xxx_stack_color, but call memset directly, then we 
have to add some margin again for memset. Here is an example:
   ```
   #ifdef CONFIG_STACK_COLORATION
      memset(tcb->stack_alloc_ptr, 0xaa, stack_size);
   #endif
   ```
   Pleaase tell me how can I measure memset stack consumption with your method? 
Do you want me to add the marker into memset?
   2.The code isn't portable at least in the theory, because the compiler 
permit to move "register real vars...;" out of the marker or add more temporary 
variables as need. Especially, if we enable some advance feature(e.g. 
AddressSanitizer, Stack Smashing Protector). Please read the related document 
to understand what will happen with the memory layout behind the scene if you 
aren't fimilar with these technique.
   Actually before I made the change in this way, I have consider your propose 
carefully and give up finally due the reason I mention previously.
