This is the announcement of stack protection code, which is known as
propolice. I have put the patch
"http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2000-11/msg00064.html", which
introduces -fstack-protector option to the latest snapshot of GCC.
Please see the web page
(http://www.trl.ibm.co.jp/projects/security/propolice/) for details and
what is a stack-smashing protection.
I'd like to know any feedback. Please feel free to send your comments.
