Hello,<div><br></div><div>I use the patch method to avoid CONFIG_MODULES to be set.</div><div>That's one more way to prevent malicious kernel modules to be loaded on risky machines (web servers with unsecure PHP application => www-data shell access => privilege escalation => malicious module loaded).</div>
<div><br></div><div>Thanks for the patch having been applyed and good news that DRBD is getting merged to Linux upstream!</div><div><br clear="all">--<br>Guillaume Plessis<br><br>

</div></div>Whow the second patch of this kind within a few days. I never expected<br>
that people actually patch DRBD into their kernels...<br>
<br>
I have applied it.<br>
<br>
Other than that we aim to get DRBD merged to Linux upstream with the<br>
2.6.32 release. You can track out integration work from here:<br>
