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 v4.14.13 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 v4.14.13 stable release shall be applied: kernel/acct.c: fix the acct->needcheck check in check_free_space() mm/mprotect: add a cond_resched() inside change_pmd_range() mm/sparse.c: wrong allocation for mem_section userfaultfd: clear the vma->vm_userfaultfd_ctx if UFFD_EVENT_FORK fails btrfs: fix refcount_t usage when deleting btrfs_delayed_nodes efi/capsule-loader: Reinstate virtual capsule mapping crypto: n2 - cure use after free crypto: chacha20poly1305 - validate the digest size crypto: pcrypt - fix freeing pcrypt instances crypto: chelsio - select CRYPTO_GF128MUL drm/i915: Disable DC states around GMBUS on GLK drm/i915: Apply Display WA #1183 on skl, kbl, and cfl sunxi-rsb: Include OF based modalias in device uevent fscache: Fix the default for fscache_maybe_release_page() x86 / CPU: Avoid unnecessary IPIs in arch_freq_get_on_cpu() x86 / CPU: Always show current CPU frequency in /proc/cpuinfo kernel/signal.c: protect the traced SIGNAL_UNKILLABLE tasks from SIGKILL kernel/signal.c: protect the SIGNAL_UNKILLABLE tasks from !sig_kernel_only() signals kernel/signal.c: remove the no longer needed SIGNAL_UNKILLABLE check in complete_signal() iommu/arm-smmu-v3: Don't free page table ops twice iommu/arm-smmu-v3: Cope with duplicated Stream IDs ARC: uaccess: dont use "l" gcc inline asm constraint modifier powerpc/mm: Fix SEGV on mapped region to return SEGV_ACCERR x86/microcode/AMD: Add support for fam17h microcode loading apparmor: fix regression in mount mediation when feature set is pinned parisc: Fix alignment of pa_tlb_lock in assembly on 32-bit SMP kernel parisc: qemu idle sleep support mtd: nand: pxa3xx: Fix READOOB implementation KVM: s390: fix cmma migration for multiple memory slots KVM: s390: prevent buffer overrun on memory hotplug during migration Linux 4.14.13 The following patches from the v4.14.13 stable release have already been applied: x86/mm: Set MODULES_END to 0xffffffffff000000 x86/mm: Map cpu_entry_area at the same place on 4/5 level x86/kaslr: Fix the vaddr_end mess x86/events/intel/ds: Use the proper cache flush method for mapping ds buffers x86/tlb: Drop the _GPL from the cpu_tlbstate export x86/alternatives: Add missing '\n' at end of ALTERNATIVE inline asm x86/pti: Rename BUG_CPU_INSECURE to BUG_CPU_MELTDOWN Input: elantech - add new icbody type 15 ** Affects: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Medium Assignee: Seth Forshee (sforshee) Status: Fix Committed ** Tags: kernel-stable-tracking-bug ** Tags added: kernel-stable-tracking-bug ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Medium ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: New => In Progress ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Assignee: (unassigned) => Seth Forshee (sforshee) ** 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.
