After upgrading from hardened-sources-3.3.6-r1 to hardened-sources-3.3.7, smartd gets killed by PaX upon booting:
Jun 2 00:47:50 kernel: PAX: size overflow detected in function ata_cmd_ioctl drivers/ata/libata-scsi.c:488 Jun 2 00:47:50 kernel: Pid: 4767, comm: smartd Not tainted 3.3.7-hardened #1 Jun 2 00:47:50 kernel: Call Trace: Jun 2 00:47:50 kernel: [<ffffffff8114bf87>] ? report_size_overflow+0x37/0x50 Jun 2 00:47:50 kernel: [<ffffffff81477162>] ? ata_cmd_ioctl+0x1d2/0x6b0 Jun 2 00:47:50 kernel: [<ffffffff81477ca0>] ? ata_sas_scsi_ioctl+0x210/0x720 Jun 2 00:47:50 kernel: [<ffffffff8143db97>] ? scsi_ioctl+0x107/0x6b0 Jun 2 00:47:50 kernel: [<ffffffff812ebd24>] ? blkdev_ioctl+0x104/0x910 Jun 2 00:47:50 kernel: [<ffffffff81181357>] ? block_ioctl+0x47/0x70 Jun 2 00:47:50 kernel: [<ffffffff8115b377>] ? do_vfs_ioctl+0xc7/0x8d0 Jun 2 00:47:50 kernel: [<ffffffff8115bc28>] ? sys_ioctl+0xa8/0xb0 Jun 2 00:47:50 kernel: [<ffffffff818f9b5e>] ? system_call_fastpath+0x18/0x1d This seems to be a regression. Should I open a bug? Should I report it upstreams? Regards: Dw. -- dr Tóth Attila, Radiológus, 06-20-825-8057 Attila Toth MD, Radiologist, +36-20-825-8057
