On parisc we need to initialize the memory layout for the user stack at process start time to a fixed size, which up until now was limited to the size as given by CONFIG_MAX_STACK_SIZE_MB at compile time. This hard limit was too small and showed problems when compiling ruby2.7, qmlcachegen and some Qt packages. This patch changes two things: a) It increases the default maximum stack size to 100MB. b) Users can modify the stack hard limit size with ulimit and then newly forked processes will use the given stack size which can even be bigger than the default 100MB.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
