   @xiaoxiang781216 I want to be sure:
   
   1)  I understand what you atr asking me to do here.
   2) both understand why  CONFIG_STACK_COLORATION was added in the first 
place. in 2013-11-01 10:16:5 b8085906b9db4cbb05977ed96105a473a0836eb1 
   
   Here is my understanding:
   
   1) The feature to color the stack is a **debugging feature**. It is enabled 
with CONFIG_STACK_COLORATION
   2) If CONFIG_STACK_COLORATION is enabled the <ARCH>_checkstack will be 
included in the build.
   3) hardfaults will dump stack usage
   4) proc file system will provide the stack used amount.
   5) Debug application can used this information to monitor the stack 
penetration.
   
   What do you mean by "your approach." ?
   
   Are you asking me to add the assembly based coloring to all the archs and 
chips defined in nuttx?
    
   If this is because of the TLS changes:  
https://github.com/apache/incubator-nuttx/issues/986 
   
   Do we now have a debugging ONLY feature that the TLS is dependent on?
