[Bug 1820798] Re: hardening-check: add support for detecting stack clash protected binaries

[Alex Murray]

Sure I'll see what I can do - my understanding was the process was to
get it into Ubuntu first and then submit it back to Debian but am happy
to go the other way round.

Title:
  hardening-check: add support for detecting stack clash protected
  binaries

Status in devscripts package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  The security team is in the process of making -fstack-clash-protection
  enabled by default in gcc-8/9 for 19.10 / 20.04. To support this it is
  useful to be able to detect binaries which include this new feature
  via hardening-check. Unlike previous features this can only be
  detected by looking for the sequence of instructions which perform
  this feature in the disassembly output via objdump.
