The work of improving the Linux kernel's security is, of course, and endless task. While many of the new features come through on the kernel-hardening@lists.openwall.com list[1], there is a stated desire to avoid "maintenance" topics[2] on the list, and that isn't compatible with the on-going work done within the upstream Linux kernel development community, which may need to discuss the nuances of performing that work. As such there is now a new list, linux-hardening@vger.kernel.org[3], which will take kernel-hardening's place in the Linux MAINTAINERS file. New topics and on-going work will be discussed there, and I urge anyone interested in Linux kernel hardening to join the new list. It's my intention that all future upstream work can be CCed there, following the standard conventions of the Linux development model, for better or worse. ;) For anyone discussing new topics or ideas, please continue to CC kernel-hardening too, as there will likely be many people only subscribed there. Hopefully this will get the desired split of topics between the two lists. Thanks and take care, -Kees [1] https://www.openwall.com/lists/kernel-hardening/ https://lore.kernel.org/kernel-hardening/ [2] https://lore.kernel.org/kernel-hardening/20200902121604.GA10684@openwall.com/ [3] http://vger.kernel.org/vger-lists.html#linux-hardening https://lore.kernel.org/linux-hardening/ -- Kees Cook
