7 bool "Enable experimental features by default"
9 Set this option to build with latest bleeding edge features
10 which may or may not work as expected.
11 If you would like to help the development of OpenWrt, you are
12 encouraged to set this option and provide feedback (both
13 positive and negative). But do so only if you know how to
14 recover your device in case of flashing potentially non-working
17 If you plan to use this build in production, say NO!

92 When this option is disabled, software which provides patented functionality
93 will not be built. In case software provides optional support for patented
94 functionality, this optional support will get disabled for this package.
97 bool "Compile with full language support"
99 When this option is enabled, packages are built with the full versions of
100 iconv and GNU gettext instead of the default OpenWrt stubs. If uClibc is
101 used, it is also built with locale support.

128 bool "Make debug information reproducible"
131 This strips the local build path out of debug information. This has the
132 advantage of making it reproducible, but the disadvantage of making local
133 debugging using ./scripts/remote-gdb harder, since the debug data will
134 no longer point to the full path on the build host.

198 Select the binary stripping method you wish to use.
203 This will install unstripped binaries (useful for native
204 compiling/debugging).
209 This will install binaries stripped using strip from binutils.

234 config STRIP_KERNEL_EXPORTS
235 bool "Strip unnecessary exports from the kernel image"
236 depends on !LINUX_6_6
238 Reduces kernel size by stripping unused kernel exports from the kernel
239 image. Note that this might make the kernel incompatible with any kernel
240 modules that were not selected at the time the kernel image was created.
243 bool "Strip unnecessary functions from libraries"
245 Reduces libraries to only those functions that are necessary for using all
246 selected packages (including those selected as <M>). Note that this will
247 make the system libraries incompatible with most of the packages that are
248 not selected during the build process.

252 config PKG_CHECK_FORMAT_SECURITY

258 this per package by adding PKG_CHECK_FORMAT_SECURITY:=0 in the package
262 prompt "User space ASLR PIE compilation"
263 default PKG_ASLR_PIE_NONE if ((SMALL_FLASH || LOW_MEMORY_FOOTPRINT) && !SDK)
264 default PKG_ASLR_PIE_REGULAR
266 Add -fPIC to CFLAGS and -specs=hardened-build-ld to LDFLAGS.
267 This enables package build as Position Independent Executables (PIE)
268 to protect against "return-to-text" attacks. This belongs to the
269 feature of Address Space Layout Randomisation (ASLR), which is
270 implemented by the kernel and the ELF loader by randomising the
271 location of memory allocations. This makes memory addresses harder
272 to predict when an attacker is attempting a memory-corruption exploit.
273 You can disable this per package by adding PKG_ASLR_PIE:=0 in the package
275 Be ware that ASLR increases the binary size.
