Public bug reported: SRU Justification
Impact: The upstream process for stable tree updates is quite similar in scope to the Ubuntu SRU process, e.g., each patch has to demonstrably fix a bug, and each patch is vetted by upstream by originating either directly from a mainline/stable Linux tree or a minimally backported form of that patch. The v4.4.46 upstream stable patch set is now available. It should be included in the Ubuntu kernel as well. git://git.kernel.org/ TEST CASE: TBD The following patches from the v4.4.46 stable release shall be applied: fbdev: color map copying bounds checking tile/ptrace: Preserve previous registers for short regset write drm: Fix broken VT switch with video=1366x768 option mm/mempolicy.c: do not put mempolicy before using its nodemask sysctl: fix proc_doulongvec_ms_jiffies_minmax() ISDN: eicon: silence misleading array-bounds warning RDMA/cma: Fix unknown symbol when CONFIG_IPV6 is not enabled s390/ptrace: Preserve previous registers for short regset write can: c_can_pci: fix null-pointer-deref in c_can_start() - set device pointer can: ti_hecc: add missing prepare and unprepare of the clock ARC: udelay: fix inline assembler by adding LP_COUNT to clobber list ARC: [arcompact] handle unaligned access delay slot corner case parisc: Don't use BITS_PER_LONG in userspace-exported swab.h header nfs: Don't increment lock sequence ID after NFS4ERR_MOVED NFSv4.0: always send mode in SETATTR after EXCLUSIVE4 SUNRPC: cleanup ida information when removing sunrpc module drm/i915: Don't leak edid in intel_crt_detect_ddc() IB/ipoib: move back IB LL address into the hard header IB/umem: Release pid in error and ODP flow s5k4ecgx: select CRC32 helper pinctrl: broxton: Use correct PADCFGLOCK offset platform/x86: intel_mid_powerbtn: Set IRQ_ONESHOT mm, memcg: do not retry precharge charges Linux 4.4.46 ** Affects: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Affects: linux (Ubuntu Xenial) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: kernel-stable-tracking-bug ** Tags added: kernel-stable-tracking-bug ** Also affects: linux (Ubuntu Xenial) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Description changed: + SRU Justification - SRU Justification + Impact: + The upstream process for stable tree updates is quite similar + in scope to the Ubuntu SRU process, e.g., each patch has to + demonstrably fix a bug, and each patch is vetted by upstream + by originating either directly from a mainline/stable Linux tree or + a minimally backported form of that patch.
