I said I understood why spender would be upset about putting a copyright with somebody else's name on grsec code. That's basically all I did

Ok, it seems reasonable to me. I'm sick of what KSPP/Linux foundation has been doing.

Some of us are sick of what grsec/spender has been doing... spender apparently bans people just for saying hi on the KSPP mailing list.

That's not my concerns. I still think LF/CII should buy me PaX/Grsec's test patch. Spender/PaX team treated us well in past 16 yrs until..

It makes no sense to blame other people for Spender's decision to stop sharing. That decision is his and his alone.

Can you spell regression. In the views of some, KSPP/LF can't be trusted not to make a hash of kernel security engineering.

The vulnerability is not something that was introduced by KSPP, and I didn’t mean to imply that at all. The point is that grsecurity has better judgement about disabling dangerous features by default.

As long as you don't care about DoS exploits and randomly crashing kernels. grsec has *terrible* judgement about those, and its default config is plagued with issues like that. They don't consider them real security problems.
