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 v4.4.38 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 v4.4.38 stable release shall be applied: virtio-net: add a missing synchronize_net() net: check dead netns for peernet2id_alloc() ip6_tunnel: disable caching when the traffic class is inherited net: sky2: Fix shutdown crash af_unix: conditionally use freezable blocking calls in read rtnetlink: fix FDB size computation l2tp: fix racy SOCK_ZAPPED flag check in l2tp_ip{,6}_bind() net: dsa: bcm_sf2: Ensure we re-negotiate EEE during after link change net, sched: respect rcu grace period on cls destruction net/sched: pedit: make sure that offset is valid netlink: Call cb->done from a worker thread netlink: Do not schedule work from sk_destruct net/dccp: fix use-after-free in dccp_invalid_packet net: bcmgenet: Utilize correct struct device for all DMA operations sh_eth: remove unchecked interrupts for RZ/A1 geneve: avoid use-after-free of skb->data net: ping: check minimum size on ICMP header length sparc32: Fix inverted invalid_frame_pointer checks on sigreturns sparc64: Fix find_node warning if numa node cannot be found sparc64: fix compile warning section mismatch in find_node() constify iov_iter_count() and iter_is_iovec() Don't feed anything but regular iovec's to blk_rq_map_user_iov ipv6: Set skb->protocol properly for local output ipv4: Set skb->protocol properly for local output esp4: Fix integrity verification when ESN are used esp6: Fix integrity verification when ESN are used Linux 4.4.38 ** 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.
