GCC plugins are loadable modules that provide extra features to the
compiler. They are useful for runtime instrumentation and static analysis.
See Documentation/gcc-plugins.txt for details.

-config GCC_PLUGIN_STRUCTLEAK
- bool "Zero initialize stack variables"
- help
- While the kernel is built with warnings enabled for any missed
- stack variable initializations, this warning is silenced for
- anything passed by reference to another function, under the
- occasionally misguided assumption that the function will do
- the initialization. As this regularly leads to exploitable
- flaws, this plugin is available to identify and zero-initialize
- such variables, depending on the chosen level of coverage.

- initialized. Since not all existing initializers are detected
- by the plugin, this can produce false positive warnings.
