- Sesse__ 1y agoThe stack in that specific function was big enough to trigger the bug.
- drob518 1y agoSeemed like a red herring. They were able to reproduce it without any libraries. Might have just been net link forcing the stacks to a certain size and that made the bug visible.
- syncsynchalt 1y agoThe netlink function uses a larger stack than most. Their repro case required a stack adjustment larger than 1<<12 (4kiB).
