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 v4.11.8 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 v4.11.8 stable release shall be applied: clk: sunxi-ng: a31: Correct lcd1-ch1 clock register offset clk: sunxi-ng: v3s: Fix usb otg device reset bit clk: sunxi-ng: sun5i: Fix ahb_bist_clk definition xen/blkback: fix disconnect while I/Os in flight xen-blkback: don't leak stack data via response ring ALSA: firewire-lib: Fix stall of process context at packet error ALSA: pcm: Don't treat NULL chmap as a fatal error ALSA: hda - Add Coffelake PCI ID ALSA: hda - Apply quirks to Broxton-T, too fs/exec.c: account for argv/envp pointers powerpc/perf: Fix oops when kthread execs user process autofs: sanity check status reported with AUTOFS_DEV_IOCTL_FAIL fs/dax.c: fix inefficiency in dax_writeback_mapping_range() lib/cmdline.c: fix get_options() overflow while parsing ranges perf/x86/intel: Add 1G DTLB load/store miss support for SKL perf probe: Fix probe definition for inlined functions KVM: x86: fix singlestepping over syscall KVM: MIPS: Fix maybe-uninitialized build failure KVM: s390: gaccess: fix real-space designation asce handling for gmap shadows KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Cope with host using large decrementer mode KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Preserve userspace HTM state properly KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Ignore timebase offset on POWER9 DD1 KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Context-switch EBB registers properly KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Restore critical SPRs to host values on guest exit KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Save/restore host values of debug registers CIFS: Improve readdir verbosity CIFS: Fix some return values in case of error in 'crypt_message' cxgb4: notify uP to route ctrlq compl to rdma rspq HID: Add quirk for Dell PIXART OEM mouse random: silence compiler warnings and fix race signal: Only reschedule timers on signals timers have sent powerpc/kprobes: Pause function_graph tracing during jprobes handling powerpc/64s: Handle data breakpoints in Radix mode Input: i8042 - add Fujitsu Lifebook AH544 to notimeout list brcmfmac: add parameter to pass error code in firmware callback brcmfmac: use firmware callback upon failure to load brcmfmac: unbind all devices upon failure in firmware callback time: Fix clock->read(clock) race around clocksource changes time: Fix CLOCK_MONOTONIC_RAW sub-nanosecond accounting arm64/vdso: Fix nsec handling for CLOCK_MONOTONIC_RAW target: Fix kref->refcount underflow in transport_cmd_finish_abort iscsi-target: Fix delayed logout processing greater than SECONDS_FOR_LOGOUT_COMP iscsi-target: Reject immediate data underflow larger than SCSI transfer length drm/radeon: add a PX quirk for another K53TK variant drm/radeon: add a quirk for Toshiba Satellite L20-183 drm/amdgpu/atom: fix ps allocation size for EnableDispPowerGating drm/amdgpu: adjust default display clock drm/amdgpu: add Polaris12 DID ACPI / scan: Apply default enumeration to devices with ACPI drivers ACPI / scan: Fix enumeration for special SPI and I2C devices rxrpc: Fix several cases where a padded len isn't checked in ticket decode drm: Fix GETCONNECTOR regression usb: gadget: f_fs: avoid out of bounds access on comp_desc spi: double time out tolerance net: phy: fix marvell phy status reading brcmfmac: fix uninitialized warning in brcmf_usb_probe_phase2() Linux 4.11.8 The following patches from v4.11.8 had already been applied to artful: netfilter: xtables: zero padding in data_to_user netfilter: xtables: fix build failure from COMPAT_XT_ALIGN outside CONFIG_COMPAT ** Affects: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Medium Assignee: Seth Forshee (sforshee) Status: Fix Committed ** Affects: linux (Ubuntu Artful) Importance: Medium Assignee: Seth Forshee (sforshee) Status: Fix Committed ** Tags: kernel-stable-tracking-bug ** Tags added: kernel-stable-tracking-bug ** Also affects: linux (Ubuntu Artful) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** 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.
