The default is to allow executable stacks. +* Support for the extensible rseq ABI introduced in the Linux kernel version + 6.3 has been added. The size and alignment of the rseq area is now + determined by auxiliary vector entries when provided by the running kernel. + This results in __rseq_size now exposing features past the original ABI + which currently include 'node_id' and 'mm_cid' and will also allow exposing + new features as they get added to future Linux kernels. + Deprecated and removed features, and other changes affecting compatibility: * The big-endian ARC port (arceb-linux-gnu) has been removed.
