For the bionic 18.04.1 (4.15) kernel only this patch is already part of master-next: a6b3964ad71a61bb7c61d80a60bea7d42187b2eb powerpc/64s: Add barrier_nospec The others are ported, there were only 3 that were not clean. Those are: 2eea7f067f495e33b8b116b35b5988ab2b8aec55 powerpc/64s: Add support for ori barrier_nospec patching This failed because commit a048a07d7f4535baa4cbad6bc024f175317ab938 is missing, but it does not look like that is required here. cb3d6759a93c6d0aea1c10deb6d00e111c29c19c powerpc/64s: Enable barrier_nospec based on firmware settings This failed because debugfs was already included, I can see that previously added, I didn't see where it was previously removed. 06d0bbc6d0f56dacac3a79900e9a9a0d5972d818 powerpc/asm: Add a patch_site macro & helpers for patching instructions This failed because 8183d99f4a22c is not included - but doesn't seem necessary. All other patches applied with, at most, some fuzz. Has had a little testing - boots, check debugfs, etc. To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-power-systems/+bug/1822870/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages Post to : kernel-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
