musl build system (just like other libcs i know of)
pass -noexecstack to the assembler so if you build
the asm files as part of libc the object files should
have the marking, if you build outside of libc i
think it's your responsibility to add the note
(either to the asm or via the -Wa,-noexecstack flag)
readelf -lW libfoo.so | grep GNU_STACK
is one way to verify that everything has the note.
