From c743f38013aeff58ef6252601e397b5ba281c633 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Nicolas Pitre Date: Mon, 24 May 2010 23:55:42 -0400 Subject: ARM: initial stack protector (-fstack-protector) support This is the very basic stuff without the changing canary upon task switch yet. Just the Kconfig option and a constant canary value initialized at boot time.
