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: v5.4.117 upstream stable release from git://git.kernel.org/ mips: Do not include hi and lo in clobber list for R6 ACPI: tables: x86: Reserve memory occupied by ACPI tables ACPI: x86: Call acpi_boot_table_init() after acpi_table_upgrade() net: usb: ax88179_178a: initialize local variables before use igb: Enable RSS for Intel I211 Ethernet Controller iwlwifi: Fix softirq/hardirq disabling in iwl_pcie_enqueue_hcmd() bpf: Fix masking negation logic upon negative dst register bpf: Fix leakage of uninitialized bpf stack under speculation avoid __memcat_p link failure iwlwifi: Fix softirq/hardirq disabling in iwl_pcie_gen2_enqueue_hcmd() perf data: Fix error return code in perf_data__create_dir() perf ftrace: Fix access to pid in array when setting a pid filter ALSA: usb-audio: Add MIDI quirk for Vox ToneLab EX USB: Add LPM quirk for Lenovo ThinkPad USB-C Dock Gen2 Ethernet USB: Add reset-resume quirk for WD19's Realtek Hub platform/x86: thinkpad_acpi: Correct thermal sensor allocation scsi: ufs: Unlock on a couple error paths ovl: allow upperdir inside lowerdir perf/core: Fix unconditional security_locked_down() call vfio: Depend on MMU Linux 5.4.117 UBUNTU: upstream stable to v5.4.117 ** Affects: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Invalid ** Affects: linux (Ubuntu Focal) Importance: Medium 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 Focal) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu Focal) Status: New => In Progress ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu Focal) Importance: Undecided => Medium ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu Focal) Assignee: (unassigned) => Kamal Mostafa (kamalmostafa) ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Invalid ** 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.
