Closes #5643

Can this be fixed by passing -znoexecstack to the linker?

I think so, but I consider this less of a hack. LLVM is already outputting this section for Rust code, it's just not in the assembly objects.

It's possible someone might actually want an executable stack, which is why I think this (auto-detection) is better.

So can we remove -znoexecstack flags from mk/platform.mk after making these changes?

Also, is there any way to test this so it doesn't regress again?

You can use readelf -lW foo.so | grep GNU_STACK and look for a RWX flag (it should be RW).

I'm checking what happens if the gcc flag is removed right now.

Closes #5643

This also removes the need to pass noexecstack to gcc, but that wasn't
actually working anymore.

@brson: r? I had to make this specific to Linux - not sure if BSD should have it too. It looks like it might just be a sysctl parameter on FreeBSD.

I want to fallback these files. arm libraries does not need to follow base linux policy like Fedora, SELinux

@yichoi: The problem is that I used @ and apparently that's a comment character with the ARM assembler. The stack should be marked as non-executable on ARM too, so I'll send another pull that fixes this problem.

ptr_arg: honor `allow` attribute on arguments

The `intravisit::Visitor` impl for `LateContextAndPass` only takes into account the attributes of a function parameter inside the `check_param` method. `ptr_arg` starts its heuristics at `check_item` / `check_impl_item` / `check_trait_item`, so the `allow` is not taken into account automatically.

Fixes rust-lang#5644
