Upstream have now pulled in a commit to properly fix the underlying issue. Once we merge that fix, we should be able to reapply the reverted commit. [Test Case] If the kernel boots and we can still load the sha{1,2}_ce modules, we should be good. [Fix] After this is applied: https://www.spinics.net/lists/stable/msg431217.html We should reapply the commit we reverted here: https://kernel.ubuntu.com/git/ubuntu/ubuntu-xenial.git/commit/?id=4baa2fdd354700e2304e10cdbc64402621c3fa29 [Where Problems May Occur] Although we shipped the reverted patch for many releases - the whole time we did so, the impacted modules were not loadable. Once we reapply it, xenial users will be running that code for the first time. If there are issues with the code, users of the sha{1,2}_ce modules may now hit them. Issues could include kernel oopses, corruption, etc. To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1907489/+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
