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 4.15.9 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 4.15.9 stable release shall be applied: bpf: fix mlock precharge on arraymaps bpf: fix memory leak in lpm_trie map_free callback function bpf: fix rcu lockdep warning for lpm_trie map_free callback bpf, x64: implement retpoline for tail call bpf, arm64: fix out of bounds access in tail call bpf: add schedule points in percpu arrays management bpf: allow xadd only on aligned memory bpf, ppc64: fix out of bounds access in tail call scsi: mpt3sas: fix oops in error handlers after shutdown/unload scsi: mpt3sas: wait for and flush running commands on shutdown/unload KVM: x86: fix backward migration with async_PF Linux 4.15.9 ** Affects: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: kernel-stable-tracking-bug ** Tags added: kernel-stable-tracking-bug ** 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.
