- <p>Stack Smashing Protection is a compiler feature which emits extra code
- to check for stack smashing attacks. It depends on a canary, which is
- initialized with the process, and functions for process termination when
- an overflow is detected. These are private entry points intended solely
- for use by the compiler, and are used when any of the <code>-fstack-protector</code>,
- <code>-fstack-protector-all</code>, <code>-fstack-protector-explicit</code>, or
- <code>-fstack-protector-strong</code> compiler flags are enabled.
