Can any one explain how exactly linux kernel stack organisation is handled?

When a child process is created using the fork() system call, how is the kernel stack space initialized?

I'm not sure I understand your question. Are you talking about kernel thread stacks or something else? What do you mean by "organised"? – Mat Dec 23 '11 at 13:40
Sounds to me like a question about memory / address space layout. – jw013 Feb 14 '12 at 18:01
