Description of changes
i.e. even if
fortify3is inhardening_unsupported_flagsThis fixes a rather obscure piece of behaviour that probably wouldn't have been noticed by anything other than my hardening flag test suite (see #253186).
But it makes the clang and gcc paths behave ever so slightly differently due to clang being marked with
hardeningUnsupportedFlags = [ "fortify3" ];. It currently has the effect of also disablingfortifyif onlyfortify3is mentioned inNIX_HARDENING_ENABLEfor some reason, and I think most people would find that behaviour surprising.Things done
