Hello.

Linux 2.6.27.6 kernel was released on 13th November. Now is 17th, so much time passed and there is no grsecurity for this kernel. Does anybody know when it will be released?

The grsecurity 2.6.27.5 patch goes into the 2.6.27.6 kernel just fine (I just tested it - 6 hunks have line offsets, nothing major like fuzz or hunk failures). You can use that for now while you wait for Brad to merge in the latest changes to PAX and post the latest "official" test patch.

I've seen it take a few weeks before a new patch comes out. Life gets busy!
