 2 * GCC stack protector support.
 3 *
 4 * (This is directly adopted from the ARM implementation)
 5 *
 6 * Stack protector works by putting predefined pattern at the start of
 7 * the stack frame and verifying that it hasn't been overwritten when
 8 * returning from the function.  The pattern is called stack canary
 9 * and gcc expects it to be defined by a global variable called
10 * "__stack_chk_guard" on MIPS.  This unfortunately means that on SMP
11 * we cannot have a different canary value per task.
