https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D212377 Bug ID: 212377 Summary: devel/binutils RELRO description is not descriptive Product: Ports & Packages Version: Latest Hardware: Any OS: Any Status: New Severity: Affects Only Me Priority: --- Component: Individual Port(s) Assignee: bapt@FreeBSD.org Reporter: wblock@FreeBSD.org Flags: maintainer-feedback?(bapt@FreeBSD.org) Assignee: bapt@FreeBSD.org The new RELRO option is described as "enable -z relro in ELF linker by default". This is not useful to the reader. The name of the option implies that it enables that feature. What the user installing a port needs to know is what effect that option will have. For example: "Enable Relocation Read-Only memory corruption mitigation by default." --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
