3 * GCC stack protector support.
5 * Stack protector works by putting predefined pattern at the start of
6 * the stack frame and verifying that it hasn't been overwritten when
7 * returning from the function. The pattern is called stack canary
8 * and gcc expects it to be defined by a global variable called
9 * "__stack_chk_guard" on ARM. This prevents SMP systems from using a
10 * different value for each task unless we enable a GCC plugin that
11 * replaces these symbol references with references to each task's own

23 * Initialize the stackprotector canary value.
25 * NOTE: this must only be called from functions that never return,
26 * and it must always be inlined.
