# 272461 02-Oct-2014 gjb

Copy stable/10@r272459 to releng/10.1 as part of
the 10.1-RELEASE process.

# 256281 10-Oct-2013 gjb

# 227739 19-Nov-2011 andreast

Rename the linker emulation name for powerpc and powerc64. This is needed that
we can also use the upstream binutils linker where we have to have a unique
name for the FreeBSD emulation.


# 209920 11-Jul-2010 nwhitehorn

Provide support in loader for booting 64-bit PowerPC kernels. Like amd64,
64-bit PowerPC kernels are loaded by a 32-bit loader, since nearly all
powerpc64 firmwares execute in 32-bit mode.


# 180012 25-Jun-2008 ru

Enable GCC stack protection (aka Propolice) for userland:
- It is opt-out for now so as to give it maximum testing, but it may be
turned opt-in for stable branches depending on the consensus. You
can turn it off with WITHOUT_SSP.
- WITHOUT_SSP was previously used to disable the build of GNU libssp.
It is harmless to steal the knob as SSP symbols have been provided
by libc for a long time, GNU libssp should not have been much used.
- SSP is disabled in a few corners such as system bootstrap programs
(sys/boot), process bootstrap code (rtld, csu) and SSP symbols themselves.
- It should be safe to use -fstack-protector-all to build world, however
libc will be automatically downgraded to -fstack-protector because it
breaks rtld otherwise.
- This option is unavailable on ia64.

Enable GCC stack protection (aka Propolice) for kernel:
- It is opt-out for now so as to give it maximum testing.
- Do not compile your kernel with -fstack-protector-all, it won't work.
