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: upstream stable patchset 2019-10-23 Ported from the following upstream stable releases: v4.14.149, v4.19.79 from git://git.kernel.org/ s390/process: avoid potential reading of freed stack KVM: s390: Test for bad access register and size at the start of S390_MEM_OP s390/topology: avoid firing events before kobjs are created s390/cio: avoid calling strlen on null pointer s390/cio: exclude subchannels with no parent from pseudo check KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Don't lose pending doorbell request on migration on P9 KVM: nVMX: handle page fault in vmread fix PM / devfreq: tegra: Fix kHz to Hz conversion ASoC: Define a set of DAPM pre/post-up events powerpc/powernv: Restrict OPAL symbol map to only be readable by root can: mcp251x: mcp251x_hw_reset(): allow more time after a reset tools lib traceevent: Fix "robust" test of do_generate_dynamic_list_file crypto: qat - Silence smp_processor_id() warning crypto: skcipher - Unmap pages after an external error crypto: cavium/zip - Add missing single_release() crypto: caam - fix concurrency issue in givencrypt descriptor usercopy: Avoid HIGHMEM pfn warning timer: Read jiffies once when forwarding base clk watchdog: imx2_wdt: fix min() calculation in imx2_wdt_set_timeout drm/omap: fix max fclk divider for omap36xx mmc: sdhci: improve ADMA error reporting mmc: sdhci-of-esdhc: set DMA snooping based on DMA coherence Revert "locking/pvqspinlock: Don't wait if vCPU is preempted" xen/xenbus: fix self-deadlock after killing user process ieee802154: atusb: fix use-after-free at disconnect cfg80211: initialize on-stack chandefs ima: always return negative code for error fs: nfs: Fix possible null-pointer dereferences in encode_attrs() 9p: avoid attaching writeback_fid on mmap with type PRIVATE xen/pci: reserve MCFG areas earlier ceph: fix directories inode i_blkbits initialization ceph: reconnect connection if session hang in opening state watchdog: aspeed: Add support for AST2600 netfilter: nf_tables: allow lookups in dynamic sets drm/amdgpu: Check for valid number of registers to read pNFS: Ensure we do clear the return-on-close layout stateid on fatal errors pwm: stm32-lp: Add check in case requested period cannot be achieved thermal: Fix use-after-free when unregistering thermal zone device fuse: fix memleak in cuse_channel_open sched/core: Fix migration to invalid CPU in __set_cpus_allowed_ptr() perf build: Add detection of java-11-openjdk-devel package kernel/elfcore.c: include proper prototypes perf unwind: Fix libunwind build failure on i386 systems KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: XIVE: Free escalation interrupts before disabling the VP nbd: fix crash when the blksize is zero block/ndb: add WQ_UNBOUND to the knbd-recv workqueue nbd: fix max number of supported devs powerpc/pseries: Fix cpu_hotplug_lock acquisition in resize_hpt() tools lib traceevent: Do not free tep->cmdlines in add_new_comm() on failure tick: broadcast-hrtimer: Fix a race in bc_set_next perf tools: Fix segfault in cpu_cache_level__read() perf stat: Fix a segmentation fault when using repeat forever perf stat: Reset previous counts on repeat with interval vfs: Fix EOVERFLOW testing in put_compat_statfs64 coresight: etm4x: Use explicit barriers on enable/disable cfg80211: add and use strongly typed element iteration macros cfg80211: Use const more consistently in for_each_element macros nl80211: validate beacon head ASoC: sgtl5000: Improve VAG power and mute control KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Check for MMU ready on piggybacked virtual cores powerpc/mce: Fix MCE handling for huge pages powerpc/mce: Schedule work from irq_work MIPS: Treat Loongson Extensions as ASEs PCI: Restore Resizable BAR size bits correctly for 1MB BARs drm/msm/dsi: Fix return value check for clk_get_parent ima: fix freeing ongoing ahash_request x86/purgatory: Disable the stackleak GCC plugin for the purgatory thermal_hwmon: Sanitize thermal_zone type libnvdimm/region: Initialize bad block for volatile namespaces drm/radeon: Bail earlier when radeon.cik_/si_support=0 is passed UBUNTU: upstream stable to v4.14.149, v4.19.79 ** Affects: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Confirmed ** Affects: linux (Ubuntu Bionic) Importance: Undecided 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 Bionic) 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.
