Name        : annobin
Product     : Fedora 38
Version     : 12.40
Release     : 1.fc38
URL         : https://sourceware.org/annobin/
Summary     : Annotate and examine compiled binary files
Description :
This package contains the tools needed to annotate binary files created by
compilers, and also the tools needed to examine those annotations.


One of the tools is a plugin for GCC that records information about the
security options that were in effect when the binary was compiled.

Note - the plugin is automatically enabled in gcc builds via flags
provided by the redhat-rpm-macros package.



One of the tools is a plugin for Clang that records information about the
security options that were in effect when the binary was compiled.



One of the tools is a plugin for LLVM that records information about the
security options that were in effect when the binary was compiled.



One of the tools is a security checker which analyses the notes present in
annotated files and reports on any missing security options.
