Subject: [PATCH v2 0/2] hardening: Enable i386 FORTIFY_SOURCE on Clang 16+
Date: Fri,  7 Mar 2025 20:29:24 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250308041950.it.402-kees@kernel.org> (raw)

Hi,

This drops -ffreestanding for i386 unconditionally for GCC, and on
Clang version 16 and later. FORTIFY_SOURCE depends on the libcall
optimizations made without -ffreestanding on Clang. On GCC, there is no
expected differences. With that done, it's possible to gain Clang
FORTIFY_SOURCE coverage on i386 again, though only for Clang 16+.

-Kees


 v1: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20250303214929.work.499-kees@kernel.org/
 v2: drop -ffreestanding (Nathan)
