Accomplishments:

  * Implemented and tested HARDEN_SHM.
  * Implemented HARDEN_VM86, spotted an analogy with seccomp v2.
  * Got an information from LKML that procfs patch is incomplete in sense of
    taskstats and proc connector.  Heavily reworked implementation,
    removed hidepid=2.  Sent a ptrace part of the patch to LKML.
  * While observing taskstats code, fixed local DoS.
  * Sent a comment about RLIMIT_NPROC.
  * Started to read Intel Architecture Developer's Manual to
    review/implement full kernel RO/NX.

Priorities:

  * Continue to discuss everything with upstream.
  * Push/discuss pending patches to LKML.
  * Overview PaX features, determine what parts of it are acceptable for
    upstream.
