For an embedded device i have to use the kernel 2.4.19. Because the ARM9 processor is only supported by this version.
Is there an grsec patch availbale for this version?
Maybe is an older patch available?

Thanks
Dirk

If someone donates me an ARM device to develop on (see the donations page), I will be able to officially support the architecture. Until that happens, PaX will not support ARM, and the ACL system will be missing critical features for the architecture.

Which critical features are missing on the ARM architecture for the ACl patch?

I know that PaX doesn't work on the ARM, but I have to use the ACL features in a new project.

ptrace and mmap hooks will be missing. read-only ptrace might not be supported correctly.
