Description H.J. Lu 2018-04-23 12:59:10 UTC 
Requirement of -mcet to enable CET has been removed
from GCC 8 by revision 259496:

commit b1384095a7c1d06a44b70853372ebe037b2f7867
Author: hjl <hjl@138bc75d-0d04-0410-961f-82ee72b054a4>

    x86: Enable -fcf-protection with multi-byte NOPs

-fcf-protection no longer depens on -mcet.  -mcet should be removed
from __global_compiler_flags.
Comment 1 Florian Weimer 2018-04-23 16:23:03 UTC 
Not rthat the above commit is not currently in Fedora (gcc-8.0.1-0.20.fc28.x86_64, gcc-8.0.1-0.21.fc29.x86_64).  Coordination with the GCC maintainers is needed.
Comment 2 Florian Weimer 2018-05-02 09:43:49 UTC 
We need to fix this in Fedora 28 as well, but this needs a GCC update first.  gcc-8.0.1-0.20.fc28 still requires -mcet for -fcf-protection.
