does that answer your question ?


$ grep STACKPROTECTOR /boot/config-$(uname -r)
CONFIG_HAVE_CC_STACKPROTECTOR=y
CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR=y
# CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR_NONE is not set
# CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR_REGULAR is not set
CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR_STRONG=y

(it is used since several years by default)
