/*
* GCC stack protector support.
* (Generic implementation based on __stack_chk_guard)
*
* Stack protector works by putting predefined pattern at the start of
* the stack frame and verifying that it hasn't been overwritten when
* returning from the function. The pattern is called stack canary
* and gcc expects it to be defined by a global variable called
* "__stack_chk_guard". This unfortunately means that on SMP
* we cannot have a different canary value per task.
