2024-10-08 13:44:43 Julian Andres Klode description [ Impact ] In order to help developers with profiling, Ubuntu enabled frame-pointers for packages in the main archive. https://ubuntu.com/blog/ubuntu-performance-engineering-with-frame-pointers-by-default The `Affects` packages were missed due to the packaging issues. These have been fixed on Oracular and can now be ported to Noble. [ Test Plan ] Look at the DW_AT_producer in the associated debug ELF file for flags. -fno-omit-frame-pointer should be present after the fix. The following scripts can be used as a reference https://gist.github.com/julian-klode/85e55553f85c410a1b856a93dce77208 https://gist.github.com/julian-klode/95818246eaef0ac6a54588f7f368e25c <package specific test plan goes here> [ Where problems could occur ] No source changes are made. The packaging fixes have enabled other security hardening flags. This could have unintended effects. [ Other Info ] changes in dpkg have been made to make sure frame-pointers are not enabled on s390x and ppc64el.

We don't expect any regressions from compiler flag changes, so I don't want to do a whole bunch of UI tests or anything. [ Where problems could occur ] No source changes are made.
