grsecurity forums

Hello,
I'm working with grsec for many years now, but I see this error for first time:

Code: Select all

  MODPOST 153 modules
/bin/sh: line 1: 15459 File size limit exceededobjcopy -O binary -R .note -R .comment -S vmlinux arch/i386/boot/compressed/vmlinux.bin
make[2]: *** [arch/i386/boot/compressed/vmlinux.bin] Error 153

The file size is always different value. If I compile the kernel without the grsec patch I don't have any problems. Have you ever seen such an error?

I'm using vanilla 2.6.21 and grsecurity-2.1.10-2.6.21-200705041939.patch.

The only change to that patch was the dependency for the PaX.

do you have KERNEXEC enabled? and what's your ld version?

Yes, I have KERNEXEC enabled.
