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 v4.18.2 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 v4.18.2 stable release shall be applied: x86/l1tf: Fix build error seen if CONFIG_KVM_INTEL is disabled x86: i8259: Add missing include file x86/hyper-v: Check for VP_INVAL in hyperv_flush_tlb_others() x86/platform/UV: Mark memblock related init code and data correctly x86/mm/pti: Clear Global bit more aggressively xen/pv: Call get_cpu_address_sizes to set x86_virt/phys_bits x86/mm: Disable ioremap free page handling on x86-PAE kbuild: verify that $DEPMOD is installed crypto: ccree - fix finup crypto: ccree - fix iv handling crypto: ccp - Check for NULL PSP pointer at module unload crypto: ccp - Fix command completion detection race crypto: x86/sha256-mb - fix digest copy in sha256_mb_mgr_get_comp_job_avx2() crypto: vmac - require a block cipher with 128-bit block size crypto: vmac - separate tfm and request context crypto: blkcipher - fix crash flushing dcache in error path crypto: ablkcipher - fix crash flushing dcache in error path crypto: skcipher - fix aligning block size in skcipher_copy_iv() crypto: skcipher - fix crash flushing dcache in error path Bluetooth: hidp: buffer overflow in hidp_process_report ioremap: Update pgtable free interfaces with addr x86/mm: Add TLB purge to free pmd/pte page interfaces Linux 4.18.2 ** Affects: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Medium Assignee: Seth Forshee (sforshee) Status: Fix Committed ** Tags: kernel-stable-tracking-bug ** Tags added: kernel-stable-tracking-bug ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Medium ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: New => In Progress ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Assignee: (unassigned) => Seth Forshee (sforshee) ** 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.
