perf tools: Fix perf stack to non executable on x86_64
By adding following objects: bench/mem-memcpy-x86-64-asm.o the x86_64 perf binary ended up with executable stack. The reason was that above object are assembler sourced and is missing the GNU-stack note section. In such case the linker assumes that the final binary should not be restricted at all and mark the stack as RWX. Adding section ".note.GNU-stack" definition to mentioned object, with all flags disabled, thus omiting this object from linker stack flags decision. Problem introduced in: $ git describe ea7872b v2.6.37-rc2-19-gea7872b Reported-at: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=783570 Reported-by: Clark Williams <[email protected]> Acked-by: Eric Dumazet <[email protected]> Cc: Corey Ashford <[email protected]> Cc: Ingo Molnar <[email protected]> Cc: Paul Mackerras <[email protected]> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <[email protected]> Cc: [email protected] Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/[email protected] Signed-off-by: Jiri Olsa <[email protected]> [ committer note: Backported fix to perf/urgent (3.3-rc2+) ] Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <[email protected]>
