> Hello everyone,
> 
> RSBAC 1.4.2 has been released for kernel 2.6.31.
> 
> You can download it from the usual locations, at http://www.rsbac.org
> or your favorite mirror.
> 
> Here is a summary of the 1.4.2 release announcement:
> 
> With RSBAC 1.4.2, we expect a significant
> speedup and even better SMP scalability from the new RCU based list
> locking.
> 
> There will be no more releases for 2.4 kernels, because new features
> like RCU
> require 2.6. Still, 1.4.1 for 2.4.37 is very stable and has no known
> bugs.
> Please keep using 1.4.1 for 2.4 like we do. The svn trunk for 2.4 will
> stay
> maintained for a while.
> 
> Most Important changes since 1.4.0 (somehow we skipped the 1.4.1
> announcement):
> 
>   * Change generic lists to use RCU instead of rw spinlocks
> 
>   * New SCD target videomem on x86 arch to distinguish between video
> and other
> kernel memory (SCD kmem) access
> 
>   * New config option RSBAC_ENFORCE_CLOSE to really deny close, if decided
> 
>   * Check protocol in NETLINK network templates when matching
> 
>   * Upgrade to 2.6.29.x, tons of kernel internal API changes again a usual
> 
>   *  Many small bugfixes
> 
> Upgrading from 1.3 or 1.4.x is easy: Compile, install and boot. Some
> extra
> checks might require minor adjustments, though.
