Description Anthony Basile gentoo-dev 2015-04-15 23:22:43 UTC
fortify-headers is a stand alone implementation of fortify sources as discussed at http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2004-09/msg02055.html.  It is libc agnostic and can be used with musl as alpine linux does.

We can install fortify-headers at /usr/include/fortify if USE=fortify is given.

Reproducible: Always
Comment 1 Felix Janda 2015-04-16 17:23:13 UTC
Since it is standalone, why not package it seperately?

> Since it is standalone, why not package it seperately?

I was thinking of it as a separate package on which the musl ebuild depends conditionally with USE=fortify.  However, to make use of it, you need to add the correct -I line and I was thinking of maybe patching the spec files to include that in musl.
Comment 3 Felix Janda 2015-04-18 16:51:05 UTC
I see, sounds sensible.

Just for reference:

http://git.alpinelinux.org/cgit/aports/tree/main/gcc/gcc-4.9-musl-fortify.patch?id=067a4f28825478911bb62be3b8da758d9722753e

is used in alpine to make gcc first search for the fortify headers.
However it depends on other gcc patches they use.

Hmm .. don't like it.  I'd rather go with spec files where we can just add another spec which can be selected using gcc-config.
Comment 5 Felix Janda 2015-04-19 21:00:30 UTC
The alpine patch was just for reference.

So we could have a fortify.specs à la

%rename cc1 old_cc1

*cc1:
-isystem /usr/include/fortify %(old_cc1)

which would need to be added to GCC_SPECS, say to all variants except vanilla.

sys-libs/fortify-headers is not on the gentoo tree.

It is now :)

Latest patch: https://git.alpinelinux.org/aports/tree/main/gcc/0020-add-fortify-headers-paths.patch.

But yeah, I'd prefer spec if we can too I suppose.

I meant to say "sys-libs/fortify-headers is NOW on the gentoo tree."

Sam I didn't look carefully, but do we need the sys-libs/fortify-headers package now?

Ah ok!

I think we still need it now, musl doesn't want to implement these (https://wiki.musl-libc.org/future-ideas.html), so we just need to figure out how we want to force it in for now.

Specs or a patch. I think a patch is easier for now while we test it out, then move to specs once we're happy?
Comment 10 Sam James archtester Gentoo Infrastructure gentoo-dev Security 2022-04-27 02:38:54 UTC
In #musl, dalias and some others mentioned issues with the current impl which need fixing.

Example gcc ebuild fix for fortify-headers

Here is a collection of my notes for testing using the Alpine fortify-headers patch.

I've only tested this on ~arm64 system using the profile default/linux/arm64/17.0/musl/hardened. Once the workaround is applied then @system will rebuild without issue (minus the musl lfs64 shim issue with help2man) so I believe testing could be opened up once the current issue is solved.

Current issues in Gentoo:

When using the Alphine for some reason the header fix included in 
gcc-13-fix-cross-fixincludes.patch gets used during the compile rather than the system /usr/include/sys headers so this needs to be removed. I've included the workaround ebuild I used for the test system however a better solution is needed going forward. This does also happen with GCC-12.

Test machine info:
