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: v4.4.257 upstream stable release from git://git.kernel.org/ net_sched: reject silly cell_log in qdisc_get_rtab() futex,rt_mutex: Provide futex specific rt_mutex API futex: Remove rt_mutex_deadlock_account_*() futex: Rework inconsistent rt_mutex/futex_q state futex: Avoid violating the 10th rule of futex futex: Replace pointless printk in fixup_owner() futex: Provide and use pi_state_update_owner() rtmutex: Remove unused argument from rt_mutex_proxy_unlock() futex: Use pi_state_update_owner() in put_pi_state() futex: Simplify fixup_pi_state_owner() futex: Handle faults correctly for PI futexes usb: udc: core: Use lock when write to soft_connect scsi: libfc: Avoid invoking response handler twice if ep is already completed scsi: ibmvfc: Set default timeout to avoid crash during migration stable: clamp SUBLEVEL in 4.4 and 4.9 USB: serial: cp210x: add pid/vid for WSDA-200-USB USB: serial: cp210x: add new VID/PID for supporting Teraoka AD2000 USB: serial: option: Adding support for Cinterion MV31 net: lapb: Copy the skb before sending a packet UBUNTU: [Config] updateconfigs for ELFCORE ELF/MIPS build fix elfcore: fix building with clang USB: gadget: legacy: fix an error code in eth_bind() USB: usblp: don't call usb_set_interface if there's a single alt usb: dwc2: Fix endpoint direction check in ep_from_windex mac80211: fix station rate table updates on assoc kretprobe: Avoid re-registration of the same kretprobe earlier cifs: report error instead of invalid when revalidating a dentry fails mmc: core: Limit retries when analyse of SDIO tuples fails ARM: footbridge: fix dc21285 PCI configuration accessors mm: hugetlbfs: fix cannot migrate the fallocated HugeTLB page mm: hugetlb: fix a race between isolating and freeing page mm: hugetlb: remove VM_BUG_ON_PAGE from page_huge_active x86/build: Disable CET instrumentation in the kernel x86/apic: Add extra serialization for non-serializing MSRs Input: xpad - sync supported devices with fork on GitHub ACPI: thermal: Do not call acpi_thermal_check() directly ALSA: hda/realtek - Fix typo of pincfg for Dell quirk Linux 4.4.257 UBUNTU: upstream stable to v4.4.257 ** Affects: linux (Ubuntu Xenial) 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 Xenial) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu Xenial) Status: New => In Progress ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu Xenial) Importance: Undecided => Medium ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu Xenial) Assignee: (unassigned) => Kamal Mostafa (kamalmostafa) ** No longer affects: linux (Ubuntu) ** 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.
