Implement the AT_MINSIGSTKSZ AUXV entry, allowing userspace to
dynamically size stack allocations in a manner forward-compatible with
new processor state saved in the signal frame
For now these statically find the maximum signal frame size rather than
doing any runtime testing of features to minimise the size.
glibc 2.34 will take advantage of this, as will applications that use
use _SC_MINSIGSTKSZ and _SC_SIGSTKSZ.

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.
