+/// glibc __pthread_get_minstack() will take TLS into account for the minimal
+/// stack size (since you cannot use stack less then TLS block size, otherwise
+/// some variables may be overwritten)
+///
+/// So glibc implementation is:
+///
+///     sysconf(_SC_PAGESIZE) + __static_tls_size + PTHREAD_STACK_MIN;
+///
+/// But this helper cannot do this since:
+/// - __pthread_get_minstack() is hidden in libc (note that rust tried to do
+///     this but revert it to retry loop, for compatibility, while we cannot
+///     use retry loop since this function is used for sigaltstack())
+/// - __static_tls_size is not exported in glibc
+/// - it is not used anywhere except for clickhouse itself (for sigaltstack(),
+///   to handle SIGSEGV only) and using PTHREAD_STACK_MIN (16k) is enough right
+///   now.
+///
+/// Also we cannot use getStackSize() (pthread_attr_getstack()) since it will
+/// return 8MB, and this is too huge for signal stack.
