[PATCH v5 07/27] x86/build: Check W^X of vmlinux during build

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Check if there are simultaneously writable and executable
program segments in vmlinux ELF image and fail build if there are any.

This would prevent accidental introduction of RWX segments.
