I am developer of ndiswrapper and just caught up with this discussion. I am interested in providing private stack for ndiswrapper. I am not familiar with linux kernel internals to understand your proposal. Could you give me details please: If you can give a rough sketch of idea, I can implement it. Better yet, if you (or anyone else) can provide an implementation (not necessarily against ndsiwrapper, but a proof of concept), it will be greatly appreciated - this should also help any other projects that need more than 4k stack.
Thanks, Giri.
