For this reason, they have decided to support the efforts made by Gustavo Silva and Nathan Chancellor, who are responsible for maintaining and improving kernel security.<\/p>\n<p>Chancellor focuses on <strong>classifying and correcting errors found with the Clang \/ LLVM compilers <\/strong>and establishing continuous integration systems. &#8220;I hope that more and more people will start to use the LLVM compiler infrastructure project and contribute fixes to it and the kernel \u2013 it will go a long way towards improving Linux security for everyone,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n<p>Silva is dedicated to eliminating various kinds of buffer overflows and <strong>fixing errors before hitting the mainline<\/strong>.
