[SOLVED] Hardened kernel panic 01 December 2023, 08:47:32 Hello, anyone has problems with the latest hardened kernel? (6.5.13.hardened1-1) Looks like it throws a panic and complains about the iptables module. The normal kernel doesn't give me any issues works perfect. Last Edit: 02 December 2023, 23:58:40 by Hitman

Re: Hardened kernel panic Reply #2 – 01 December 2023, 13:04:18 Good to know is something general and it's not just me. 😌 I've looked briefly into the patch but couldn't figure out much. There are many changes between latest and the previous version. This is why I'm having two kernels installed, just in case one fails. Tnx
Re: Hardened kernel panic Reply #3 – 01 December 2023, 14:11:15 Yes, I have the same problem after upgrading to linux-hardened-6.5.13.hardened1-1UPDATEAnd for several updates now I can’t connect my Android smartphone to my PC. I don’t know yet whether the kernel is to blame... Last Edit: 01 December 2023, 14:23:23 by doheka 1 Likes
Re: Hardened kernel panic Reply #4 – 01 December 2023, 15:53:48 Well looks like we are already 3 guys having ~ the same issue. I think this will be fixed soon as this bug seems to be rather wide spread for those who boot this kernel. I remember having same problem not long ago with this kernel and waited for the next release that finally worked.
Re: Hardened kernel panic Reply #5 – 02 December 2023, 11:20:56 I've also got the same problem. Had to use a rescue stick to install an alternative (non-hardened) kernel.Would some of the pain this involved be alleviated by always keeping an old kernel as a backup when the update process runs? 1 Likes

As a result, after an update and a failed boot, you simply reboot and select the old kernel in the grub menu and boot. You can do the same on your artix

Re: Hardened kernel panic Reply #8 – 02 December 2023, 14:25:32 I just launched a rebuild a the previous version of the kernel.If you can't wait for the package to reach your mirror (it will be ready in a few hours since it is behind a chromium build) just downgrade manually. 1 Likes
Re: Hardened kernel panic Reply #9 – 02 December 2023, 21:04:09 Any idea what nuked the kernel? Not a kernel specialist but would be nice to know Quotekeeping an old kernel as a backup when the update process runs? No not old kernel just a working one. I'm using 2 kernels the hard one and the default/current. If hardened panics I just use the current. Hardened kernel should be alternatively named 'the anything but zen kernel' I'll go update now and I think I can close it. Tnx everyone who looked into this and Merry Christmas for those who celebrate! 🎄🌨️🌨☃️ 1 Likes

Re: [SOLVED] Hardened kernel panic Reply #11 – 10 December 2023, 00:55:15 The only change is this. They added 13 lines of code, idk, from what I could find they say it's shell 🤔
Re: [SOLVED] Hardened kernel panic Reply #12 – 10 December 2023, 03:44:30 They changed a patch (diff) file which changes a file written in kernel C, which is not quite like GLIBC C. You now need to look at include/net/neighbour.h to see how the changes alter things in the relevant section.The only actual change was the line u8 primary_key[0] changed to u8 primary_key[]https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/latest/source/include/net/neighbour.h 1 Likes
