Abstract
This paper designs the kernel hardening function by recovering the kernel stack fame to reduce the system error or panic due to the kernel code error. The suggested kernel hardening function guarantees normal system operation by recovering the incorrect address of the kernel stack kernel. The suggesting kernel hardening mechanism is applied to the network module of Linux which is much using put. I experimented the kernel hardening function at the network module of the Linux by forcing panic code.
