The patch titled Subject: taint: add taint for randstruct has been added to the -mm tree. Its filename is taint-add-taint-for-randstruct.patch This patch should soon appear at http://ozlabs.org/~akpm/mmots/broken-out/taint-add-taint-for-randstruct.patch and later at http://ozlabs.org/~akpm/mmotm/broken-out/taint-add-taint-for-randstruct.patch Before you just go and hit "reply", please: a) Consider who else should be cc'ed b) Prefer to cc a suitable mailing list as well c) Ideally: find the original patch on the mailing list and do a reply-to-all to that, adding suitable additional cc's *** Remember to use Documentation/SubmitChecklist when testing your code *** The -mm tree is included into linux-next and is updated there every 3-4 working days ------------------------------------------------------ From: Kees Cook <keescook@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: taint: add taint for randstruct Since the randstruct plugin can intentionally produce extremely unusual kernel structure layouts (even performance pathological ones), some maintainers want to be able to trivially determine if an Oops is coming from a randstruct-built kernel, so as to keep their sanity when debugging. This adds the new flag and initializes taint_mask immediately when built with randstruct.
