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 4.4.136 upstream stable 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 4.4.136 stable release shall be applied: * Linux 4.4.136 * sparc64: Fix build warnings with gcc 7. * mm: fix the NULL mapping case in __isolate_lru_page() * fix io_destroy()/aio_complete() race * Kbuild: change CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE definition * drm/i915: Disable LVDS on Radiant P845 * hwtracing: stm: fix build error on some arches * stm class: Use vmalloc for the master map * scsi: scsi_transport_srp: Fix shost to rport translation * MIPS: prctl: Disallow FRE without FR with PR_SET_FP_MODE requests * MIPS: ptrace: Fix PTRACE_PEEKUSR requests for 64-bit FGRs * iio:kfifo_buf: check for uint overflow * dmaengine: usb-dmac: fix endless loop in usb_dmac_chan_terminate_all() * i2c: rcar: revoke START request early * i2c: rcar: check master irqs before slave irqs * i2c: rcar: don't issue stop when HW does it automatically * i2c: rcar: init new messages in irq * i2c: rcar: refactor setup of a msg * i2c: rcar: remove spinlock * i2c: rcar: remove unused IOERROR state * i2c: rcar: rework hw init * i2c: rcar: make sure clocks are on when doing clock calculation * tcp: avoid integer overflows in tcp_rcv_space_adjust() * irda: fix overly long udelay() * ASoC: Intel: sst: remove redundant variable dma_dev_name * rtlwifi: rtl8192cu: Remove variable self-assignment in rf.c * cfg80211: further limit wiphy names to 64 bytes * selinux: KASAN: slab-out-of-bounds in xattr_getsecurity * tracing: Fix crash when freeing instances with event triggers * Input: elan_i2c_smbus - fix corrupted stack * Revert "ima: limit file hash setting by user to fix and log modes" * xfs: detect agfl count corruption and reset agfl * sh: New gcc support * USB: serial: cp210x: use tcflag_t to fix incompatible pointer type * powerpc/64s: Clear PCR on boot * arm64: lse: Add early clobbers to some input/output asm operands ** Affects: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Invalid ** Tags: kernel-stable-tracking-bug ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: New => Invalid ** Description changed: - 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.
