This request was approved but not uploaded in time for the previous point release (11.9). Should it be included in 11.10, or should this request be abandoned and closed? -- Jonathan Wiltshire j...@debian.org Debian Developer http://people.debian.org/~jmw 4096R: 0xD3524C51 / 0A55 B7C5 1223 3942 86EC 74C3 5394 479D D352 4C51 ed25519/0x196418AAEB74C8A1: CA619D65A72A7BADFC96D280196418AAEB74C8A1

I trust you :) Go ahead, and if you can furnish me with a CVE list I'd appreciate that too.

Bug#1057084: bullseye-pu: package nvidia-graphics-drivers-tesla-450/450.248.02-4~deb11u1
Package: release.debian.org Severity: normal Tags: bullseye User: release.debian@packages.debian.org Usertags: pu [ Reason ] The Tesla 450 driver series has reached End of Life. I'd like to turn it into transitional packages to ease switching to the Tesla 470 driver series. We did the same with the Tesla 460 series after that reached EoL last year. The 470 series supports a superset of GPUs, so this switch is not a regression in terms of supported devices or features. [ Impact ] A proprietary EoL graphics driver with more CVEs open. [ Tests ] Only module building has been tested. Anything else would require certain hardware and driver usage. [ Risks ] Low. The same changes have been applied to src:nvidia-graphics-drivers-tesla-470 last year. [ Checklist ] [*] *all* changes are documented in the d/changelog [*] I reviewed all changes and I approve them [*] attach debdiff against the package in (old)stable [*] the issue is verified as fixed in unstable [ Changes ] There are patches making the module compatible with recent kernels. While these are not needed for oldstable or the transitional packages, I don't want to deviate from what is in sid. There are only minor additional packaging changes. debian/README.source| 19 +- debian/changelog| 84 +++- debian/control | 149 +- debian/control.in | 288 +- debian/control.md5sum | 8 +- debian/gbp.conf | 2 +- ...atch => 0010-backport-pci-dma-changes-for-ppc64el-from-470.223.02.patch} | 21 +- .../patches/0027-backport-get_user_pages-changes-from-520.56.06.patch | 379 ++ .../debian/patches/0028-backport-get_user_pages-changes-from-525.53.patch | 222 .../patches/0029-backport-get_user_pages-changes-from-525.53-uvm-part.patch | 93 + .../patches/0030-backport-get_user_pages-changes-from-535.86.05.patch | 392 .../debian/patches/0031-backport-asm-page.h-changes-from-470.223.02.patch | 69 +++ .../patches/0032-backport-drm_gem_prime_handle_to_fd-changes-from-470.patch | 54 + .../patches/0033-refuse-to-load-legacy-module-if-IBT-is-enabled.patch | 63 ++ debian/module/debian/patches/conftest-verbose.patch | 6 +- debian/module/debian/patches/series.in | 9 +- debian/nvidia-alternative.postinst.in | 2 +- debian/nvidia-alternative.preinst.in| 7 + debian/nvidia-options.conf.in | 6 +- debian/nvidia.NEWS | 13 ++ debian/rules| 7 +- debian/rules.defs | 5 +- debian/tests/control| 8 +- debian/tests/control.in | 8 +- 24 files changed, 1584 insertions(+), 330 deletions(-) [ Other info ] This is a rebuild of the package from sid with no further changes.
