try to check /proc/<pid>/status on VmStk line. But IMHO that indicates the whole stack size (sum of all thread's stack size). BTW, sure what you want to do is safe? what if you miscalculate it? Certainly your application would crash some ways. So, maybe you need other workaround. If you need to reserve memory, perhaps what you need to do is doing malloc() wisely. -- regards, Mulyadi Santosa Freelance Linux trainer and consultant blog: the-hydra.blogspot.com training: mulyaditraining.blogspot.com _______________________________________________ Kernelnewbies mailing list Kernelnewbies@kernelnewbies.org http://lists.kernelnewbies.org/mailman/listinfo/kernelnewbies
