[1bade3f]143 <para>
[30f3041]144 PIE (position-independent executables) are
[e502de1]145 binary programs that can be loaded anywhere in memory. Without PIE,
146 the security feature named ASLR (Address Space Layout Randomization)
[30f3041]147 can be applied for the shared libraries, but not for the executables
148 themselves. Enabling PIE allows ASLR for the executables in addition to
[e502de1]149 the shared libraries, and mitigates some attacks based on fixed
150 addresses of sensitive code or data in the executables.
[1bade3f]151 </para>
152 <para>
153 SSP (Stack Smashing Protection) is a technique to ensure
[30f3041]154 that the parameter stack is not corrupted. Stack corruption can,
155 for example, alter the return address of a subroutine,
156 thus transferring control to some dangerous code
[e502de1]157 (existing in the program or shared libraries, or injected by the
[30f3041]158 attacker somehow).

167 <para>In this section, the test suite for GCC is considered
[30f3041]168 important, but it takes a long time. First-time builders are
169 encouraged to run the test suite. The time to run the tests can be

[050335d]195 <para>Two tests named <filename>pr104610.c</filename> and
196 <filename>pr69482-1.c</filename> are known to fail because the test

200 Additionally, two tests named <filename>copy.cc</filename> and
201 <filename>pr56837.c</filename> are known to fail.</para>
202
[9278974d]203 <para>A few unexpected failures cannot always be avoided. The GCC developers
[0238d49]204 are usually aware of these issues, but have not resolved them yet.
[9278974d]205 Unless the test results are vastly different from those at the above URL,
206 it is safe to continue.</para>

[e3e989a]209 On some combinations of kernel configuration and AMD processors
210 there may be more than 1100 failures in the gcc.target/i386/mpx
211 tests (which are designed to test the MPX option on recent
212 Intel processors). These can safely be ignored on AMD
[1c8cc71]213 processors. These tests will also fail on Intel processors if MPX support
214 is not enabled in the kernel even though it is present on the CPU.
