Hello,

Has someone ever tried matching Xen and Grsecurity ?

It's a security patch for the linux kernel that I really appreciate...

I could try to apply it on the Xen kernel, but I'm kinda scared that
it could break a few things.

Especially since Xen (in para-virtualization mode at least) is doing
stuff with the memory / MMU and Grsecurity as far as I know is also
doing stuff on the memory...

So I don't know if it's 'safe' to use...

Any feedback would be greatly appreciated :)

Thanks a lot,

Ugo PARSI
