Hi Jeff,
Just FYI - I am also looking at adding in another warning. This
time for
when the linker creates a PT_LOAD segment which has all of the RWX
flags
set. At the moment my testing seems to show that it only causes
problems
when a custom linker script is used that defines its own program
headers
and does not provide separate headers for code and data.
That also sounds quite reasonable. My biggest worry would be the
embedded targets which have their own linker scripts -- but like the
executable stack warning, I think you should go for it and we'll deal
with the fallout.
