[Intel-wired-lan] [PATCH 2/3] gcc-plugins: Introduce stackinit plugin

Kees Cook keescook at chromium.org
Wed Jan 23 11:03:48 UTC 2019


This attempts to duplicate the proposed gcc option -finit-local-vars[1]
in an effort to implement the "always initialize local variables" kernel
development goal[2].

Enabling CONFIG_GCC_PLUGIN_STACKINIT should stop all "uninitialized
stack variable" flaws as long as they don't depend on being zero. :)
