Compile error - fs/proc/array.c - 2.4.32 grsec-2.1.8

[marcaurel]

Hello.

When building 2.4.32 kernel with lastest grsec I got error like this:

array.c: In function `proc_pid_stat':

I found solution on mailing list (about changing MAC control to 'none') but it didn't work. I already checked other options combinations. No effect.

.config:

grsecurity-2.1.8-2.4.32-200601211647.patch
gcc version 3.4.6

Any idea about that?

Thanks in advance.
Best regards, Mark.

don't enable CONFIG_GRKERNSEC_PROC_MEMMAP, you don't use PaX/ASLR, nothing to hide then.
