When I upgraded from 2.6.32.8 to grsecurity-2.6.32.9-2010071225 I found the machine continuously rebooting.
Vmlinux, config and log of the bootprocess: http://www.aoi-karin.net/grsec
After the problem I tried:
grsecurity-2.1.14-2.6.32.9-201002231820.patch (success, without serial console)
grsecurity-2.1.14-2.6.32.9-201003071225.patch (fail, with and without serial console)
grsecurity-2.1.14-2.6.33-201003071645.patch (fail, without serial console)
grsecurity-2.1.14-2.6.33-201003112028.patch (fail, without serial console)
Things changed between the 02-23 and the 03-07 version:
- added serial console (to be able to produce a logfile)
- activated the CONFIG_GRKERNSEC_AUDIT_PTRACE option
Small addition:
disabling CONFIG_GRKERNSEC_AUDIT_PTRACE makes no difference
