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 following upstream stable patches should be included in the Ubuntu kernel: v4.4.236 upstream stable release from git://git.kernel.org/ HID: core: Correctly handle ReportSize being zero HID: core: Sanitize event code and type when mapping input perf record/stat: Explicitly call out event modifiers in the documentation mm, page_alloc: remove unnecessary variable from free_pcppages_bulk hwmon: (applesmc) check status earlier. ceph: don't allow setlease on cephfs s390: don't trace preemption in percpu macros xen/xenbus: Fix granting of vmalloc'd memory dmaengine: of-dma: Fix of_dma_router_xlate's of_dma_xlate handling batman-adv: Avoid uninitialized chaddr when handling DHCP batman-adv: bla: use netif_rx_ni when not in interrupt context dmaengine: at_hdmac: check return value of of_find_device_by_node() in at_dma_xlate() netfilter: nf_tables: incorrect enum nft_list_attributes definition netfilter: nf_tables: fix destination register zeroing dmaengine: pl330: Fix burst length if burst size is smaller than bus width bnxt_en: Check for zero dir entries in NVRAM. fix regression in "epoll: Keep a reference on files added to the check list" tg3: Fix soft lockup when tg3_reset_task() fails. iommu/vt-d: Serialize IOMMU GCMD register modifications thermal: ti-soc-thermal: Fix bogus thermal shutdowns for omap4430 include/linux/log2.h: add missing () around n in roundup_pow_of_two() btrfs: drop path before adding new uuid tree entry btrfs: Remove redundant extent_buffer_get in get_old_root btrfs: Remove extraneous extent_buffer_get from tree_mod_log_rewind btrfs: set the lockdep class for log tree extent buffers uaccess: Add non-pagefault user-space read functions uaccess: Add non-pagefault user-space write function btrfs: fix potential deadlock in the search ioctl net: qmi_wwan: MDM9x30 specific power management net: qmi_wwan: support "raw IP" mode net: qmi_wwan: should hold RTNL while changing netdev type net: qmi_wwan: ignore bogus CDC Union descriptors Add Dell Wireless 5809e Gobi 4G HSPA+ Mobile Broadband Card (rev3) to qmi_wwan qmi_wwan: Added support for Gemalto's Cinterion PHxx WWAN interface qmi_wwan: add support for Quectel EC21 and EC25 NET: usb: qmi_wwan: add support for Telit LE922A PID 0x1040 drivers: net: usb: qmi_wwan: add QMI_QUIRK_SET_DTR for Telit PID 0x1201 usb: qmi_wwan: add D-Link DWM-222 A2 device ID net: usb: qmi_wwan: add Telit ME910 support net: usb: qmi_wwan: add Telit 0x1050 composition ALSA: ca0106: fix error code handling ALSA: pcm: oss: Remove superfluous WARN_ON() for mulaw sanity check dm cache metadata: Avoid returning cmd->bm wild pointer on error dm thin metadata: Avoid returning cmd->bm wild pointer on error net: refactor bind_bucket fastreuse into helper net: initialize fastreuse on inet_inherit_port checkpatch: fix the usage of capture group ( ... ) mm/hugetlb: fix a race between hugetlb sysctl handlers cfg80211: regulatory: reject invalid hints net: usb: Fix uninit-was-stored issue in asix_read_phy_addr() ALSA: firewire-digi00x: add support for console models of Digi00x series ALSA: firewire-digi00x: exclude Avid Adrenaline from detection ALSA; firewire-tascam: exclude Tascam FE-8 from detection fs/affs: use octal for permissions affs: fix basic permission bits to actually work ravb: Fixed to be able to unload modules net: ethernet: mlx4: Fix memory allocation in mlx4_buddy_init() bnxt_en: Failure to update PHY is not fatal condition. bnxt: don't enable NAPI until rings are ready net: usb: dm9601: Add USB ID of Keenetic Plus DSL sctp: not disable bh in the whole sctp_get_port_local() net: disable netpoll on fresh napis Linux 4.4.236 UBUNTU: upstream stable to v4.4.236 ** Affects: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Confirmed ** Affects: linux (Ubuntu Xenial) Importance: Undecided Assignee: Kamal Mostafa (kamalmostafa) Status: In Progress ** Tags: kernel-stable-tracking-bug ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: New => Confirmed ** Tags added: kernel-stable-tracking-bug ** Also affects: linux (Ubuntu Xenial) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu Xenial) Status: New => In Progress ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu Xenial) Assignee: (unassigned) => Kamal Mostafa (kamalmostafa) ** 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.
