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: v4.4.260 upstream stable release from git://git.kernel.org/ futex: Ensure the correct return value from futex_lock_pi() net: usb: qmi_wwan: support ZTE P685M modem iwlwifi: pcie: fix to correct null check mmc: sdhci-esdhc-imx: fix kernel panic when remove module scripts: use pkg-config to locate libcrypto scripts: set proper OpenSSL include dir also for sign-file hugetlb: fix update_and_free_page contig page struct assumption JFS: more checks for invalid superblock xfs: Fix assert failure in xfs_setattr_size() net: fix up truesize of cloned skb in skb_prepare_for_shift() mm/hugetlb.c: fix unnecessary address expansion of pmd sharing staging: fwserial: Fix error handling in fwserial_create x86/reboot: Add Zotac ZBOX CI327 nano PCI reboot quirk vt/consolemap: do font sum unsigned wlcore: Fix command execute failure 19 for wl12xx pktgen: fix misuse of BUG_ON() in pktgen_thread_worker() ath10k: fix wmi mgmt tx queue full due to race condition x86/build: Treat R_386_PLT32 relocation as R_386_PC32 Bluetooth: Fix null pointer dereference in amp_read_loc_assoc_final_data staging: most: sound: add sanity check for function argument media: uvcvideo: Allow entities with no pads scsi: iscsi: Restrict sessions and handles to admin capabilities sysfs: Add sysfs_emit and sysfs_emit_at to format sysfs output scsi: iscsi: Ensure sysfs attributes are limited to PAGE_SIZE scsi: iscsi: Verify lengths on passthrough PDUs Xen/gnttab: handle p2m update errors on a per-slot basis xen-netback: respect gnttab_map_refs()'s return value zsmalloc: account the number of compacted pages correctly swap: fix swapfile read/write offset media: v4l: ioctl: Fix memory leak in video_usercopy Linux 4.4.260 UBUNTU: upstream stable to v4.4.260 ** Affects: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Invalid ** Affects: linux (Ubuntu Xenial) Importance: Medium 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) Importance: Undecided => Medium ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu Xenial) Assignee: (unassigned) => Kamal Mostafa (kamalmostafa) ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Invalid ** 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.
