ASLR

Because of Apple's implementation of he ASLR in 4.3, there is no chance the kernel is still vulnerable to Ramdisk Hack. Itaiyz97 12:17, 4 December 2011 (MST)

Mod

Added the kextstat listing, fixed obsolete mention of 0xC00... (now 0x8000.. instead) --Morpheus 07:27, 10 February 2012 (MST)

Boot-arg address

I'm looking at the iPod 4G Kernel in IDA. Isn't the address for PE_parse_boot_argn at 0x80241314 --Haifisch 21:47, 5 July 2012 (MDT)

XNU Versions

I find it weird how Apple lists the XNU Version for OS X, but not iOS over at their Open Source Listing page. AFAIK, that isn't legal. --5urd 19:01, 17 November 2012 (MST)

boot-args

The boot-args list is quite long. I think that should go to a separate page (with "Main-Article: ..." here). I found this page: Boot-args (iBoot variable). Is that the same? If yes, then it belongs there and we should link that article to here. --http (talk) 23:10, 8 February 2013 (UTC)

Boot-arg list

May i suggest that we do the list with the addresses like:

8000A8E4 boot-arg: debug
8000A9D8 boot-arg: _panicd_ip

winocm's kernel

I don't think that this is the correct place for winocm's custom kernel. I think that this should be for only official kernel versions personally. What does everyone else think? I'm not saying that it should not be on the wiki, but not on this page. Maybe on User:Winocm? --iAdam1n (talk) 21:57, 2 August 2014 (UTC)

Agreed. Either User:winocm or we make another page like Kernel/Custom — Spydar007 (Talk) 08:39, 3 August 2014 (UTC)

Personally I don't think that making a new page would be too useful since the content would only say that it is winocm's kernel and the version. If anyone else suggests that a new page is a good idea with a good reason, that would be fine. --iAdam1n (talk) 12:13, 3 August 2014 (UTC)

We could add a new section to the kernel page for custom kernel work. Unfortunately, winocm may be a bit busy with her internship to comment on this matter. --Haifisch (talk) 17:57, 3 August 2014 (UTC)

I think a new section on this page would work fine. --Dialexio (talk) 18:24, 10 August 2014 (UTC)

That would be fine by me. I have now performed the change. --iAdam1n (talk) 18:37, 10 August 2014 (UTC)

KPP (Kernel Patch Protection)

I think it would be a good idea to add KPP to this Kernel page once we get to know more about it in the upcoming iOS 9 release. I certainly don't know anything about it, so I won't add it yet. --Citrusui (talk) 08:16, 10 September 2015 (UTC)
