[04/17,v5] Mark all machinery needed in early static-link init as -fno-stack-protector.
Commit Message
From: Nick Alcock <nick.alcock@oracle.com>
The startup code in csu/, brk() and sbrk(), and the
__pthread_initialize_tcb_internal() function we just introduced are
needed very early in initialization of a statically-linked program,
before the stack guard is initialized. Mark all of these as
-fno-stack-protector.
We also finally introduce @libc_cv_ssp@ and @no-stack-protector@, both
substituted by the configury changes made earlier, to detect the case
when -fno-stack-protector is supported by the compiler, and
unconditionally pass it in when this is the case, whether or not
--enable-stack-protector is passed to configure. (This means that
it'll even work when the compiler's been hacked to pass
-fstack-protector by default, unless the hackage is so broken that
it does so in a way that is impossible to override.)
(At one point we marked __libc_fatal() as non-stack-protected too,
but this was pointless: all it did was call other routines which *are*
stack-protected. The earliest __libc_fatal() call is in the
DL_SYSDEP_OSCHECK hook on some platforms, when statically linking:
this is fine, since it is after TLS and stack-canary initialization.
I have tested invocation of programs statically and dynamically
linked against this glibc on older kernels on x86 and ARM, and they
still "work", i.e. fail with the appropriate message.)
v2: No longer mark memcpy() as -fno-stack-protector.
v3: Use $(no-stack-protector).
v4: Use inhibit_stack_protector rather than de-protecting all of nptl-init.c.
v5: Don't stack-protect brk() and sbrk() in the shared library.
* config.make.in (have-ssp): New.
(no-stack-protector): New.
* csu/Makefile (CFLAGS-.o): Use it.
(CFLAGS-.og): Likewise.
(CFLAGS-.op): Likewise.
(CFLAGS-.os): Likewise.

(CFLAGS-sbrk.op): Likewise.
(CFLAGS-sbrk.og): Likewise.
(CFLAGS-brk.o): Likewise.
(CFLAGS-brk.op): Likewise.
(CFLAGS-brk.og): Likewise.
* nptl/nptl-init.c [!SHARED] (__pthread_initialize_tcb_internal):
Likewise.

is there a format you're trying to avoid ? *.oS ?
could use a comment.

Not particularly. If CFLAGS on its own works, I could use that.

Now this is .os-avoidance. I assumed the mention of static library
initialization was sufficient, but I could add ', so turn it off for
non-.os' or something if you like.

It doesn't. We have to explicitly name the lot. (*.oS is not affected by
this, which is the only reason I'm not naming it...)
