Partial RELRO means that the object is GNU_RELRO but not BIND_NOW. This
reduces the effectiveness of RELRO. bluez triggers this because it
enables PIE during the build, and rpmdiff takes this as an indicator
that the best possible hardening is desired.

__attribute__((format(printf))) doesn't seem to catch missing format
string in function call ie.
char *p = "foo";
printf(p);
vs
printf("%s", p);
Enabling -Wformat -Wformat-security warns in such case.
Coverage is enabled with --enable-maintainer-mode, 2 new targets are
added 'coverage' and 'clean-coverage', the first generate the reports
using lcov and depend on the second to cleanup previous generated
reports and .gcda files.
This will allow to catch up build errors introduced by using GLib API
introduced in newer GLib than minimal required even if building with
newer version.
On commit cc9e4e7cae, this flag was
mistakenly replaced with the behavior of the old --enable-fortify
option.
This patch restores the "-O0" flag when --disable-optimization is used.
Unfortunately, this is not enough to disable build optimization. By
default, autoconf adds -O2 to CFLAGS if the compiler is GCC. AM_CFLAGS
(where -O0 is added with --disable-optimization) is passed as argument
to GCC before autoconf CFLAGS, so it is not possible to override the
default -O2. One solution is to use:
CFLAGS= ./configure --disable-optimization
i.e. remove -O2 from CFLAGS, and let autoconf add -O0.
The dummy backend was always being compiled and the --with-hog-suspend
option was not being accepted by configure. Now the backend can be
selected with --with-hog-suspend and the suspend implementation file is
generated during compile time.
Set a separate variable for adding warning flags, optimization, etc.
Build systems are not supposed to change CFLAGS and LDFLAGS, these are
user variables.
Doing so we guarantee CFLAGS and LDFLAGS from environment is appended
to the flags used during build. One useful use-case is to temporarily
disable -Werror when using --enable-maintainer-mode, without completely
loosing the warning flags and other parameters in CFLAGS (like -fPIC).
Without this patch, fiddling with CFLAGS/LDFLAGS after configure may
result in errors like below:
/usr/bin/ld: tools/rfcomm.o: relocation R_X86_64_32 against `.bss' can
not be used when making a shared object; recompile with -fPIC
tools/rfcomm.o: could not read symbols: Bad value
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
make[1]: *** [tools/rfcomm] Error 1
make: *** [all] Error 2

Remove individual GATT plugin configuration switches and add a
new master gatt switch called --enable-gatt to enable/disable all
GATT related plugins at once.
It was disabled for quite some time (since 2009), and does not even
compile anymore if enabled:
plugins/echo.c: In function 'session_event':
plugins/echo.c:53: error: implicit declaration of function
'g_io_channel_read'
plugins/echo.c:57: error: implicit declaration of function
'g_io_channel_write'
The Nintendo Wii Remote requires binary bluetooth addresses as PINs.
This is not possible via dbus agent API. So this adds a plugin that
registers a pin-callback and forces the right pin for every
authentication request of wiimotes.
Instead of passing --[disable|enable]-configfiles, now we use
--[disable|enable]-datafiles as not all of the files are installed for
configuration but are rather data files.
