That should be okay to SRU, but was this fix already brought upstream? And if so would you please share the commit (or backport) that does apply cleanly to the focal master-next tree?

When these instructions are available and preexisting user space code still uses the old s390_pci_mmio_write/read system calls, the system calls fail with an "Unable to handle kernel pointer dereference in virtual kernel address space" in the kernel. This issue affects distributions which have the enablement for Z15 PCI enhancements and where customers run workloads which accesses PCI adapters from user space, e.g. RDMA applications. To solve this, the system call implementation needs to be enhanced to provide to execute enhanced PCI load/store instructions on behalf of the user space application making use of the mappings into its virtual address space To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-z-systems/+bug/1874055/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages Post to : kernel-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
