grsecurity forums

Hi,

I am compiling grsecurity enabled kernel but getting this error:
In function `module_alloc_update_bounds_rx'
linux/kernel/module.c:1851: undefined reference to `module_free_exec'
In function `module_deallocate'
linux/kernel/module.c:2965: undefined reference to `module_free_exec'

...

in module.h it has the declaration, but it is defined only for x86 platform.

is ppc supported for PAX_KERNEXEC?

thanks,
yao

it isn't, the Kconfig should not allow it on ppc, i'll fix it in the next patch. on the other hand if you feel like working on ppc support, you're welcome .

Thanks Pax Team.

I defined it to module_alloc or module_free for ppc to pass the ppc build, it does boot. Although there are some problems but I am not quite familiar with these code, will dig a little bit when got time.

But good to know it doesn't support ppc for now.
