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 v4.10.6 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 v4.10.6 stable release shall be applied: give up on gcc ilog2() constant optimizations qla2xxx: Fix memory leak for abts processing qla2xxx: Fix request queue corruption. parisc: Optimize flush_kernel_vmap_range and invalidate_kernel_vmap_range parisc: support R_PARISC_SECREL32 relocation in modules parisc: Fix system shutdown halt perf/core: Fix use-after-free in perf_release() perf/core: Fix event inheritance on fork() md/r5cache: fix set_syndrome_sources() for data in cache xprtrdma: Squelch kbuild sparse complaint NFS prevent double free in async nfs4_exchange_id cpufreq: Fix and clean up show_cpuinfo_cur_freq() powerpc/boot: Fix zImage TOC alignment hwrng: omap - write registers after enabling the clock hwrng: omap - use devm_clk_get() instead of of_clk_get() hwrng: omap - Do not access INTMASK_REG on EIP76 md/raid1/10: fix potential deadlock target/pscsi: Fix TYPE_TAPE + TYPE_MEDIMUM_CHANGER export scsi: lpfc: Add shutdown method for kexec scsi: libiscsi: add lock around task lists to fix list corruption regression scsi: mpt3sas: Avoid sleeping in interrupt context target: Fix VERIFY_16 handling in sbc_parse_cdb isdn/gigaset: fix NULL-deref at probe gfs2: Avoid alignment hole in struct lm_lockname percpu: acquire pcpu_lock when updating pcpu_nr_empty_pop_pages cgroup/pids: remove spurious suspicious RCU usage warning drm/amdgpu/si: add dpm quirk for Oland Linux 4.10.6 ** Affects: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Fix Committed ** Affects: linux (Ubuntu Zesty) Importance: Undecided Status: Fix Committed ** Tags: kernel-stable-tracking-bug ** Tags added: kernel-stable-tracking-bug ** Also affects: linux (Ubuntu Zesty) 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.
