4.4.6-grsec on RaspberryPi - kernel panic during boot

[radegand]

Hi,

A while ago, I had a success running a RPI with mainline kernel and grsec, that was pre 4.x I think...
I decided to give it a go with the latest 4.4.6 mainline + grsecurity patches.

The vanilla works fine. Unfortunately, the grsec kernel dies at boot, while attempting to dereference something from the userland?

Please see the log below:

can you add printk("registering: %pS %pS\n", fs, fs->name); dump_stack(); in register_filesystem before the call to strchr?

[spender]

Can you also post your kernel .config?

what happens when you disable RANDSTRUCT?

[spender]

Can you also provide your vmlinux file?

-Brad

[radegand]

what happens when you disable RANDSTRUCT?

Disabling the RANDSTRUCT does the trick! The kernel boots now...!

I will try the 'server -> security' option, just disabling RANDSTRUCT to see if this is the only problem.

Thanks!
Radek

[radegand]

For the record - I can confirm that rpi boots 4.4.6-grsec with all other security features enabled (using the 'server -> security' grsec settings) apart from the RANDSTRUCT

Thanks,
Radek

[spender]

Can you check your mail? I sent you a patch a couple days ago that I'll include in the next patches that should allow you to enable RANDSTRUCT again.

Hi,
It does work!
I have enabled RANDSTRUCT and recompiled it using the patch you have provided and everything seems to be working fine...
Is there anything you would like me to verify? like /proc/slabinfo or sth?

Thanks!
Radek

[spender]

Nope, I already verified it here at the assembly level, just wanted to confirm with real hardware and a full compiled kernel

Thanks!
-Brad

[N8Fear]

Hey Radec,

would you mind sharing whatever patch you used to fix the not cleanly applying parts of the grsec patch?
I fixed myself in the past but if you have something working I could spare me some extra work.

Thanks!

[radegand]

Hi N8fear,

The patch has been incorporated in the 4.4.7-grsec patch, so you should be good to go using the upstream and latest test patch!

I've just updated my rpi:

Code: Select all

# uname -a
Linux rpi6_gentoo 4.4.7-grsec #1 Sat Apr 16 19:13:11 CEST 2016 armv6l BCM2835 GNU/Linux


Happy days!

Radek

[N8Fear]

Do you use a vanilla kernel as starting point?

Would you mind sharing your kernel config?
