Read up on Alpha Prot, Max and Floor.

There is, IMHO, rather a big deal being made on here about the difference between recovery from the approach to a Stall, and from an "actual" stall.

I cannot recall many types where the drills / actions required differ. Including the Airbus A320 series. Yes - the degree / magnitude of response required may differ but the "drill" remains the same.

When you apply FBW to it the software / automation will often degrade, if only since by definition, it either has a fault, or external circumstances out of it's control, if a stall occurs. The "degrade" basics are not just "throwing it's hands in the air", but ensuring inappropriate control inputs are not made due to the fault etc.
