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 4.4.69 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 4.4.69 stable release shall be applied: * xen: adjust early dom0 p2m handling to xen hypervisor behavior * target: Fix compare_and_write_callback handling for non GOOD status * target/fileio: Fix zero-length READ and WRITE handling * target: Convert ACL change queue_depth se_session reference usage * iscsi-target: Set session_fall_back_to_erl0 when forcing reinstatement * usb: host: xhci: print correct command ring address * USB: serial: ftdi_sio: add device ID for Microsemi/Arrow SF2PLUS Dev Kit * USB: Proper handling of Race Condition when two USB class drivers try to call init_usb_class simultaneously * staging: vt6656: use off stack for in buffer USB transfers. * staging: vt6656: use off stack for out buffer USB transfers. * staging: gdm724x: gdm_mux: fix use-after-free on module unload * staging: comedi: jr3_pci: fix possible null pointer dereference * staging: comedi: jr3_pci: cope with jiffies wraparound * usb: misc: add missing continue in switch * usb: Make sure usb/phy/of gets built-in * usb: hub: Fix error loop seen after hub communication errors * usb: hub: Do not attempt to autosuspend disconnected devices * x86/boot: Fix BSS corruption/overwrite bug in early x86 kernel startup * selftests/x86/ldt_gdt_32: Work around a glibc sigaction() bug * x86, pmem: Fix cache flushing for iovec write < 8 bytes * um: Fix PTRACE_POKEUSER on x86_64 * KVM: x86: fix user triggerable warning in kvm_apic_accept_events() * KVM: arm/arm64: fix races in kvm_psci_vcpu_on * block: fix blk_integrity_register to use template's interval_exp if not 0 * crypto: algif_aead - Require setkey before accept(2) * dm era: save spacemap metadata root after the pre-commit * vfio/type1: Remove locked page accounting workqueue * IB/core: Fix sysfs registration error flow * IB/IPoIB: ibX: failed to create mcg debug file * IB/mlx4: Fix ib device initialization error flow * IB/mlx4: Reduce SRIOV multicast cleanup warning message to debug level * ext4: evict inline data when writing to memory map * fs/xattr.c: zero out memory copied to userspace in getxattr * ceph: fix memory leak in __ceph_setxattr() * fs/block_dev: always invalidate cleancache in invalidate_bdev() * Set unicode flag on cifs echo request to avoid Mac error * SMB3: Work around mount failure when using SMB3 dialect to Macs * CIFS: fix mapping of SFM_SPACE and SFM_PERIOD * cifs: fix CIFS_IOC_GET_MNT_INFO oops * CIFS: add misssing SFM mapping for doublequote * padata: free correct variable * arm64: KVM: Fix decoding of Rt/Rt2 when trapping AArch32 CP accesses * serial: samsung: Use right device for DMA-mapping calls * serial: omap: fix runtime-pm handling on unbind * serial: omap: suspend device on probe errors * tty: pty: Fix ldisc flush after userspace become aware of the data already * Bluetooth: Fix user channel for 32bit userspace on 64bit kernel * Bluetooth: hci_bcm: add missing tty-device sanity check * Bluetooth: hci_intel: add missing tty-device sanity check * mac80211: pass RX aggregation window size to driver * mac80211: pass block ack session timeout to to driver * mac80211: RX BA support for sta max_rx_aggregation_subframes * wlcore: Pass win_size taken from ieee80211_sta to FW * wlcore: Add RX_BA_WIN_SIZE_CHANGE_EVENT event * ipmi: Fix kernel panic at ipmi_ssif_thread() * Linux 4.4.69 ** Affects: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Affects: linux (Ubuntu Xenial) Importance: Medium Assignee: Stefan Bader (smb) Status: In Progress ** 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.
