Re: F28 System Wide Change: Annobin
Once upon a time, Jan Kurik <jkurik(a)redhat.com> said:
This change causes extra information to be stored in binary files
compiled by gcc. This information can be used by scripts to check on
various features of the file, such as the hardening options used of
potential ABI conflicts.
One thing that is not mentioned: how much information is stored in the
binaries? How much larger will the resulting binaries be?
Would it be possible to include this in the debuginfo, rather than the
binaries? It would seem that this additional data has a small area of
interest, but will increase storage and transfer for everybody.
