This has been addressed in -next with: commit 57450d8661b3ec2e6b6f1d938e59f426cafb06d2 Author: Tom Rini <tr...@konsulko.com> Date: Tue Feb 14 15:09:31 2023 -0500 Makefile: Link with -z noexectack When moving to gcc-12.2 we started trying to quiet some of the new linker warnings, that are not relevant to us. However, a misunderstanding of the mechanics at play meant that I intentionally omitted passing -z noexecstack to the linker, when we do need to. Add this flag and in turn remove warnings from the linker. Fixes: 1e1c51f8ace8 ("Makefile: link with --no-warn-rwx-segments") Signed-off-by: Tom Rini <tr...@konsulko.com> Reviewed-by: Simon Glass <s...@chromium.org> I didn't put this in master as (as far as I know) we're merely telling the toolchain we're being intentional, and not changing the behavior. -- Tom
