Hi! I'm (currently) packaging alsa-firmware for Arch Linux and ran across the mixartloader/miXart8.elf, which turns out to be lacking full RELRO [1], PIE [2] and being unstripped. Checking the git log it appears, that Jaroslav Kysela added it in 2003. I wonder whether the blob could be rebuilt with full RELRO and PIE and be updated. Additionally, I'd like to point out, that I don't know, how much of a use-case the Digigram miXart8 cards still are in current times, so maybe the firmware is also a candidate for being dropped (from the package on Arch Linux). Any hints, suggestions or ideas are very welcome! Best, David -- https://sleepmap.de
