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: v5.4.210 upstream stable release from git://git.kernel.org/ thermal: Fix NULL pointer dereferences in of_thermal_ functions ACPI: video: Force backlight native for some TongFang devices ACPI: video: Shortening quirk list by identifying Clevo by board_name only ACPI: APEI: Better fix to avoid spamming the console with old error logs bpf: Verifer, adjust_scalar_min_max_vals to always call update_reg_bounds() selftests/bpf: Extend verifier and bpf_sock tests for dst_port loads bpf: Test_verifier, #70 error message updates for 32-bit right shift KVM: Don't null dereference ops->destroy selftests: KVM: Handle compiler optimizations in ucall media: v4l2-mem2mem: Apply DST_QUEUE_OFF_BASE on MMAP buffers across ioctls macintosh/adb: fix oob read in do_adb_query() function x86/speculation: Add RSB VM Exit protections x86/speculation: Add LFENCE to RSB fill sequence Linux 5.4.210 UBUNTU: Upstream stable to v5.4.210 ** 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) Status: Confirmed => Invalid ** 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) ** 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.
