[Bug libc/12189] New: __stack_chk_fail should not attempt a backtrace


http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=12189

           Summary: __stack_chk_fail should not attempt a backtrace
           Product: glibc
           Version: 2.12
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: libc
        AssignedTo: drepper.fsp@gmail.com
        ReportedBy: kees@outflux.net


Currently, the _chk functions when aborting will attempt to produce a
backtrace. This should be disabled for __stack_chk_fail since by definition the
stack is corrupted. This at least leads to segfaults in the backtracer.
