[1bade3f]133 <para>
[30f3041]134 PIE (position-independent executables) are
[e502de1]135 binary programs that can be loaded anywhere in memory. Without PIE,
136 the security feature named ASLR (Address Space Layout Randomization)
[30f3041]137 can be applied for the shared libraries, but not for the executables
138 themselves. Enabling PIE allows ASLR for the executables in addition to
[e502de1]139 the shared libraries, and mitigates some attacks based on fixed
140 addresses of sensitive code or data in the executables.
[1bade3f]141 </para>
142 <para>
143 SSP (Stack Smashing Protection) is a technique to ensure
[30f3041]144 that the parameter stack is not corrupted. Stack corruption can,
145 for example, alter the return address of a subroutine,
146 thus transferring control to some dangerous code
[e502de1]147 (existing in the program or shared libraries, or injected by the
[30f3041]148 attacker somehow).

157 <para>In this section, the test suite for GCC is considered
[30f3041]158 important, but it takes a long time. First-time builders are
159 encouraged to run the test suite. The time to run the tests can be
[340e17a]160 reduced significantly by adding -jx to the <command>make -k check</command>
161 command below, where x is the number of CPU cores on your system.</para>

[81fd230]163
[2ca7fca7]164 <para>GCC may need more stack space compiling some extremely complex
165 code patterns. As a precaution for the host distros with a tight stack
166 limit, explicitly set the stack size hard limit to infinite.
167 On most host distros (and the final LFS system) the hard limit is
[2b76c89]168 infinite by default, but there is no harm done by setting it explicitly.
169 It's not necessary to change the stack size soft limit because GCC will
[2ca7fca7]170 automatically set it to an appropriate value, as long as the value does
171 not exceed the hard limit:</para>
