Title:
Lucid update to 2.6.32.63 stable release
Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
New
Status in “linux” source package in Lucid:
Fix Committed
Bug description:
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 Linus' tree or in a minimally
backported form of that patch. The 2.6.32.63 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 are in the 2.6.32.63 stable release:
Linux 2.6.32.63
net: fix regression introduced in 2.6.32.62 by sysctl fixes
auditsc: audit_krule mask accesses need bounds checking
futex: Prevent attaching to kernel threads
ethtool: Report link-down while interface is down
The following patches from 2.6.32.63 were not applied as they were
already present in the Lucid kernel:
futex: Make lookup_pi_state more robust
futex: Always cleanup owner tid in unlock_pi
futex: Validate atomic acquisition in futex_lock_pi_atomic()
futex-prevent-requeue-pi-on-same-futex.patch futex: Forbid uaddr == uaddr2 in
futex_requeue(..., requeue_pi=1)
The following patch from 2.6.32.63 was dropped as one of futex patches
in Lucid seem to implement a slightly different security fix that
prevents it from being applied:
futex: Add another early deadlock detection check
