It's a hack to make old HV's work optimally. - Eventually we can drop it, but probably not until fixed HV's - are commonplace.

Fedora local patches that are very unlikely to go upstream. -* linux-2.6-32bit-mmap-exec-randomization.patch - One half of the remaining exec-shield diff. - - davej bugged Ingo again on Jun 17 2011 about upstreaming, no response. - - mailed Linus asking for opinions in August 2011. He still hates it. - "Ugh. Certainly not in this form. That patch is just disgusting." .. - "I think that with NX and now SMEP, if you really care about security, - you'd better be using a CPU that supports 64-bit operations anyway." - As well as the increased randomisation, there's a key part of this patch - that means that DSOs get loaded in the ASCII-Armor area on 32bit. - (Addresses have topmost byte == 0) - See also https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=734239 - -* linux-2.6-i386-nx-emulation.patch - The ugly segment hack part of exec-shield that Linus hates. - Unlikely to ever go upstream. - -* linux-2.6-crash-driver.patch +* crash-driver.patch Unlikely to go upstream. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=492803 -* linux-2.6-e1000-ich9-montevina.patch - Intel hates it. Davej has an SDV that needs it. - Low maintenence, and worth hanging onto until it gets replaced - with something that fails in a different way. - -* utrace.patch - Hopefully it'll die when uprobes gets upstream. - - -*********************************************************************************** - -Spec file/config todos/cleanups - -* modules-extra: Do a few more things to make it a bit more robust. - - Allow for comments in the mod-extra.list file. - - Don't fail the build if a module is listed but not built (maybe). - - See if it can be tied into Kconfig instead of module names. - -* investigate gzip modules. Everything should support this now? - Looks like about 70M savings per kernel installed. - +******************************************************************************** -- cgit
