From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 From: Rodrigo Rebello Date: Tue, 10 Nov 2015 15:18:57 -0200 Subject: [Buildroot] [PATCH 1/1] qemu: explicitly disable SSP support Message-ID: <1447175937-18022-1-git-send-email-rprebello@gmail.com> List-Id: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit To: buildroot@busybox.net Even though the QEMU configure script does a full compile and link test to detect SSP support, it does so by using the compiler option -fstack-protector-strong (and then -fstack-protector-all if that fails). The problem with this method is that the test program passes the check with -fstack-protector-strong even when SSP support is not available in the toolchain, since that option restricts stack protection to only a subset of all the functions in a program and (in the case of the test program) no "canary" code gets inserted, producing a false-positive. This causes a subsequent failure when the probe for pthreads is performed. To avoid patching the configure script, fix that by simply disabling the use of stack protector when SSP is known to be unavailable in the toolchain. Fixes: http://autobuild.buildroot.net/results/efb/efbb4e940543894b8745bb405478a096c90a5ae2/ http://autobuild.buildroot.net/results/32d/32d6d984febad2dee1f0d31c5fa0aea823297096/ http://autobuild.buildroot.net/results/aa6/aa6e71c957fb6f07e7bded35a8e47be4dadd042c/ ...and many others.
