Yes. Before: Code working correctly After: Kernel Panic At first, I started to question if I was going mad, but then I looked through the email thread and Harshit tested it and proved that the kernel does actually panic depending on the .config. I mean realistically we should backport this patch to old kernels, right? And if we had to assign a Fixes tag to this it would need to be the commit which adds Fortify to the kernel. Prior to that commit the code was fine. Again, I'm not saying that Fortify is bad overall. Probably in DnD it would be Chaotic Good where it's overall good but sometimes a pain. regards, dan carpenter
