Long story short: assembly routines which set up their own stack frames won't have any stack protection, so it won't matter. It would be possible, in theory, to do, but quite unpleasant, given it differs between X86 and elsewhere, and whether you've got TLS implemented or not on X86... regards, Kyle -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct
