The bug is also mentioned in #378731 (comment 5) and a patch should be available by PaX Team (comment 8). I don't know what his homedir should be, but found a patch at the Virtualbox forums (see URL for more information and the origin of the attached patch).

I've also hit this bug and I can confirm that the attached patch allowed virtualbox-modules to compile.
Comment 3 Lars Wendler (Polynomial-C) (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2011-08-17 23:48:49 UTC
Is this still a problem with virtualbox-modules-4.1.2.ebuild?

Yes, I still cannot compile virtualbox-modules-4.1.2 on hardened-sources-2.6.39-r11.

In the same time I can confirm that it compiles fine on hardened-sources-2.6.39-r8.

I can confirm it too, still the same problem.

I did some additional testing and tried to compile the patched version with 2.6.39-r8 and it fails, which is suspected as the code that the patch adds isn't compatible with that specific kernel revision. So there should be a check for the specific revision of the hardened-sources that is used. I couldn't find a predefined way to do this though...

Or the 'pax_kernel' use flag could be added. I know mesa and some others use it to fix hardened-sources problems. But again, there should be a specific kernel revision check, otherwise it will fail on everthing below -r9.
Comment 6 Lars Wendler (Polynomial-C) (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2011-08-18 12:18:51 UTC
Let's add the hardened-kernel team. I don't want to add patches that might make the virtualbox-modules incompatible to non-hardened kernels and they maybe can shed some more light into this...

This is supposed to be fixed in the later version of 2.6.39 (try -r12), however there is another bug on x86 that needs to be resolved before stabilizing the higher -rX's.

See bug #378731, comments #5 and #7.

Can you test on hardened-sources-2.6.39-r12 without modifying vboxhost/vboxdrv/SUPDrvIDC.h and report back.

The build still fails for me with -r12.

Unfortunately, at the moment I can't compile 2.6.39-hardened-r12 on amd64, see https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=378731#c18

Please use gcc-4.4.5

Hi,

Indeed, I can confirm that virtualbox-modules-4.1.2 compiles fine on hardened-sources-2.6.39-r12 using gcc-4.4.5 (and fails with gcc-4.5.3-r1)

For the record - it also compiles fine with gcc-4.4.6-r1 which is the latest gcc-4.4.x in portage tree.

virtualbox-modules-4.1.2-bug379421.patch

Now when sys-devel/gcc-4.5.3-r1 is table it would be nice to apply that patch because all versions of virtualbox including the stable one are broken.
Comment 14 Anton Bolshakov 2011-10-07 10:43:54 UTC
FYI, the problem is fixed in the next version app-emulation/virtualbox-modules-4.1.4
