In that case, perhaps if a /usr/lib/ld/map.exstk containing stack = STACK ?RWX; were supplied (and mentioned in whatever documentation that other pre-supplied mapfiles are mentioned), it might be likelier to encourage developers to do as you suggest, explicitly disabling (or in the rare case needed, enabling) executable stack support for each executable. -- This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org
