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 v4.4.60 upstream 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 v4.4.60 stable release shall be applied: libceph: force GFP_NOIO for socket allocations xen/setup: Don't relocate p2m over existing one scsi: mpt3sas: fix hang on ata passthrough commands scsi: sg: check length passed to SG_NEXT_CMD_LEN scsi: libsas: fix ata xfer length ALSA: seq: Fix race during FIFO resize ALSA: hda - fix a problem for lineout on a Dell AIO machine ASoC: atmel-classd: fix audio clock rate ACPI: Fix incompatibility with mcount-based function graph tracing ACPI: Do not create a platform_device for IOAPIC/IOxAPIC tty/serial: atmel: fix race condition (TX+DMA) tty/serial: atmel: fix TX path in atmel_console_write() USB: fix linked-list corruption in rh_call_control() KVM: x86: clear bus pointer when destroyed drm/radeon: Override fpfn for all VRAM placements in radeon_evict_flags mm, hugetlb: use pte_present() instead of pmd_present() in follow_huge_pmd() MIPS: Lantiq: Fix cascaded IRQ setup rtc: s35390a: fix reading out alarm rtc: s35390a: make sure all members in the output are set rtc: s35390a: implement reset routine as suggested by the reference rtc: s35390a: improve irq handling KVM: kvm_io_bus_unregister_dev() should never fail power: reset: at91-poweroff: timely shutdown LPDDR memories blk: improve order of bio handling in generic_make_request() blk: Ensure users for current->bio_list can see the full list. padata: avoid race in reordering Linux 4.4.60 ** Affects: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Affects: linux (Ubuntu Xenial) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: kernel-stable-tracking-bug ** Tags added: kernel-stable-tracking-bug ** Also affects: linux (Ubuntu Xenial) 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.
