I have just realized that getrlimit(RLIMIT_STACK) is a pretty widely available syscall --- it's specified by the Single Unix Spec and the man pages claim it works on all the platforms I have handy to check. I propose that we make use of this call where available to prevent people from setting max_stack_depth larger than, say, the current stack rlimit less half a megabyte. This will prevent pilot error such as here: http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-bugs/2006-10/msg00053.php It'd be even nicer to not have a max_stack_depth GUC at all, but it's probably untenable to assume that getrlimit is available on every platform. Thoughts? regards, tom lane
