arm boot failure

Hi,

Finally tried booting 3.10.7 with grsecurity-2.9.1-3.10.7-201308171249.patch on a Wandboard Quad core ARM box. I've tested successful boot on it with 3.10.9 kernel and identical config, so seems to be grsec issue.

The log:
[ 0.353900] devtmpfs: unable to create devtmpfs -14

Would seem to imply -EFAULT.

The full dmesg after smp is initialized:

assuming you have UDEREF enabled, can you try without it?

Can you also try booting without CONFIG_DEVTMPFS? Also please post your .config.

No, UDEREF was not enabled. Now that I noticed it, I tried enabling it and got compile error:

That makes the original error go away - but now it fails to mount root, which is strange since I use initramfs, and the boot works just fine with vanilla kernel. Perhaps devtmpfs is required to work with initramfs.

dmesg is:

To fix compilation, apply http://grsecurity.net/~spender/arm_comp_fix.diff
It'll be included in the next patch.

Can you boot a kernel with both KERNEXEC and UDEREF enabled?

Yes, fixes compilation. Thanks.

With KERNEXEC and UDEREF and DEVTMPFS enabled it hangs early in the boot. Right after the initial:
Code: Select all
Uncompressing Linux... done, booting the kernel.

Output. I see none of the other early console debug outputs, not even the first "[ 0.000000] Booting Linux on physical CPU 0x0".

The same I assume for a kernel with KERNEXEC enabled but UDEREF disabled? I'm trying to establish a baseline here as KERNEXEC/UDEREF works fine on my Arndale.

This was the original configuration. Then it boots, but oopses in kdevtmpfs; backtrace in first post.

As you can see from config, I'm compiling a multiplatform kernel, using flattened device tree and initramfs. I wonder if any of these causes the issues as they are data passed from bootloader.

The config you linked had UDEREF enabled but KERNEXEC disabled. You're certain the original config had KERNEXEC enabled? Could you try to boot a kernel with UDEREF and KERNEXEC both disabled then? Can you also try a kernel not compiled with CONFIG_ARM_THUMB/CONFIG_ARM_THUMBEE?

FYI: on my Raspberry Pi KERNEXEC and UDEREF seem to work fine (as in they are enabled and everything's working).
