I am downgrading as I verified there is a working workaround, add the following to the kernel cmdline: slab_common.usercopy_fallback=y It might be possible to fix, and someone at gr security published a patch that among other things changes the module to use the correct API (although for an older version): https://www.grsecurity.net/~paxguy1/nvidia-drivers-387.12-pax.patch but given it's non-trivial and there is a working cmdline workaround, I'm not going to try and apply that patch, and Nvidia is looking into it. -- Kind regards, Luca Boccassi
