  • Why choose async/await over threads?

    Yes, it's what I wrote about in the last paragraph. If you can compute maximum stack size of a function, then you can avoid dynamic allocation with fibers as well. You are right that such implementations do not exist in right now, but I think it's technically possible as demonstrated by tools such as https://github.com/japaric/cargo-call-stack The main stumbling block here is FFI, historically shared libraries do not have any annotations about stack usage, so functions with bounded stack usage would not be able to use even libc.
  • Ask not what the compiler can do for you

    For rust code, I have found https://github.com/japaric/cargo-call-stack to be the best available option, as it does take advantage of how Rust types are implemented in LLVM-IR to handle function pointers / dynamic dispatch a little better. An even better solution would try to use MIR type information as well to further narrow down targets of dynamic calls in a Rust-specific way, but no such tool exists that I know of.

    Generators can just dump stuff on the stack. They have additional their own stack for storing their state. If you can prove an upper amount of creation of generators in the call graph, that would however work. There is for example this nice tool for Rust doing the overapproximation.
  • Understanding thread stack sizes and how alpine is different

    Not easy at all.

    I know that in the small-embedded world, people do work on such things.

    Eg https://github.com/japaric/cargo-call-stack
