This series extends and improves the previous patch initializing the stack guard canary. The first patch improves the previous patch by setting the most significant byte to NULL, which will filter out string buffer overflow attacks. The second patch allows creation of the canary at build time from urandom if it exists. This change breaks reproducible builds, so the third patch allows the canary to be set from the environment variable SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH if its value is not empty.
