This is a note to let you know that I have just added a patch titled module: taint kernel when lve module is loaded to the linux-3.5.y-queue branch of the 3.5.yuz extended stable tree which can be found at: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git?p=ubuntu/linux.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/linux-3.5.y-queue If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to this tree, please reply to this email. For more information about the 3.5.yuz tree, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Dev/ExtendedStable Thanks. -Herton ------ From fcac46550aff0774a73604e9f0357fabf11293b8 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Matthew Garrett <mjg59@srcf.ucam.org> Date: Fri, 22 Jun 2012 13:49:31 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] module: taint kernel when lve module is loaded commit c99af3752bb52ba3aece5315279a57a477edfaf1 upstream. Cloudlinux have a product called lve that includes a kernel module. This was previously GPLed but is now under a proprietary license, but the module continues to declare MODULE_LICENSE("GPL") and makes use of some EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL symbols. Forcibly taint it in order to avoid this.
