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 v4.15.3 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 v4.15.3 stable release shall be applied: ip6mr: fix stale iterator net: igmp: add a missing rcu locking section qlcnic: fix deadlock bug qmi_wwan: Add support for Quectel EP06 r8169: fix RTL8168EP take too long to complete driver initialization. tcp: release sk_frag.page in tcp_disconnect vhost_net: stop device during reset owner ipv6: addrconf: break critical section in addrconf_verify_rtnl() ipv6: change route cache aging logic Revert "defer call to mem_cgroup_sk_alloc()" net: ipv6: send unsolicited NA after DAD rocker: fix possible null pointer dereference in rocker_router_fib_event_work tcp_bbr: fix pacing_gain to always be unity when using lt_bw cls_u32: add missing RCU annotation. ipv6: Fix SO_REUSEPORT UDP socket with implicit sk_ipv6only soreuseport: fix mem leak in reuseport_add_sock() net_sched: get rid of rcu_barrier() in tcf_block_put_ext() net: sched: fix use-after-free in tcf_block_put_ext media: mtk-vcodec: add missing MODULE_LICENSE/DESCRIPTION media: soc_camera: soc_scale_crop: add missing MODULE_DESCRIPTION/AUTHOR/LICENSE media: tegra-cec: add missing MODULE_DESCRIPTION/AUTHOR/LICENSE gpio: uniphier: fix mismatch between license text and MODULE_LICENSE crypto: tcrypt - fix S/G table for test_aead_speed() Linux 4.15.3 ** 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 => Confirmed ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Assignee: (unassigned) => Seth Forshee (sforshee) ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => In Progress ** 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.
