I believe all three. You can have separate address spaces for
code, stack, and data. 

Among others, Intel claimed a 64K entry call stack, though as
it is two bytes each it should only be 32K. Maybe with extra logic
you can make it 64K. But only if it is a separate address space
from code and data.
