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 following upstream stable patches should be included in the Ubuntu kernel: v4.4.231 upstream stable release from git://git.kernel.org/ KVM: s390: reduce number of IO pins to 1 spi: spidev: fix a race between spidev_release and spidev_remove spi: spidev: fix a potential use-after-free in spidev_release() scsi: mptscsih: Fix read sense data size net: cxgb4: fix return error value in t4_prep_fw smsc95xx: check return value of smsc95xx_reset smsc95xx: avoid memory leak in smsc95xx_bind ALSA: compress: fix partial_drain completion state arm64: kgdb: Fix single-step exception handling oops ALSA: opl3: fix infoleak in opl3 ALSA: hda - let hs_mic be picked ahead of hp_mic ALSA: usb-audio: add quirk for MacroSilicon MS2109 KVM: x86: bit 8 of non-leaf PDPEs is not reserved Revert "ath9k: Fix general protection fault in ath9k_hif_usb_rx_cb" btrfs: fix fatal extent_buffer readahead vs releasepage race drm/radeon: fix double free ARC: entry: fix potential EFA clobber when TIF_SYSCALL_TRACE ARC: elf: use right ELF_ARCH bnxt_en: fix NULL dereference in case SR-IOV configuration fails ipv4: fill fl4_icmp_{type,code} in ping_v4_sendmsg l2tp: remove skb_dst_set() from l2tp_xmit_skb() llc: make sure applications use ARPHRD_ETHER net: Added pointer check for dst->ops->neigh_lookup in dst_neigh_lookup_skb genetlink: remove genl_bind tcp: make sure listeners don't initialize congestion-control state tcp: md5: add missing memory barriers in tcp_md5_do_add()/tcp_md5_hash_key() tcp: md5: refine tcp_md5_do_add()/tcp_md5_hash_key() barriers tcp: md5: allow changing MD5 keys in all socket states i2c: eg20t: Load module automatically if ID matches Revert "usb/ehci-platform: Set PM runtime as active on resume" Revert "usb/xhci-plat: Set PM runtime as active on resume" Revert "usb/ohci-platform: Fix a warning when hibernating" usb: gadget: udc: atmel: fix uninitialized read in debug printk staging: comedi: verify array index is correct before using it perf stat: Zero all the 'ena' and 'run' array slot stats for interval mode mtd: rawnand: brcmnand: fix CS0 layout HID: magicmouse: do not set up autorepeat usb: core: Add a helper function to check the validity of EP type in URB ALSA: line6: Perform sanity check for each URB creation ALSA: usb-audio: Fix race against the error recovery URB submission USB: c67x00: fix use after free in c67x00_giveback_urb usb: chipidea: core: add wakeup support for extcon usb: gadget: function: fix missing spinlock in f_uac1_legacy USB: serial: iuu_phoenix: fix memory corruption USB: serial: cypress_m8: enable Simply Automated UPB PIM USB: serial: ch341: add new Product ID for CH340 USB: serial: option: add GosunCn GM500 series USB: serial: option: add Quectel EG95 LTE modem virtio: virtio_console: add missing MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE() for rproc serial fuse: Fix parameter for FS_IOC_{GET,SET}FLAGS mei: bus: don't clean driver pointer Input: i8042 - add Lenovo XiaoXin Air 12 to i8042 nomux list uio_pdrv_genirq: fix use without device tree and no interrupt MIPS: Fix build for LTS kernel caused by backporting lpj adjustment hwmon: (emc2103) fix unable to change fan pwm1_enable attribute dmaengine: fsl-edma: Fix NULL pointer exception in fsl_edma_tx_handler misc: atmel-ssc: lock with mutex instead of spinlock sched/fair: handle case of task_h_load() returning 0 Linux 4.4.231 UBUNTU: upstream stable to v4.4.231 ** Affects: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Confirmed ** Affects: linux (Ubuntu Xenial) Importance: Undecided Assignee: Kamal Mostafa (kamalmostafa) Status: In Progress ** Tags: kernel-stable-tracking-bug ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: New => Confirmed ** Tags added: kernel-stable-tracking-bug ** Also affects: linux (Ubuntu Xenial) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu Xenial) Status: New => In Progress ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu Xenial) Assignee: (unassigned) => Kamal Mostafa (kamalmostafa) ** 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.
