This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled apparmor: Fix abi check to include v8 abi to the 5.10-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: apparmor-fix-abi-check-to-include-v8-abi.patch and it can be found in the queue-5.10 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 672b7688cfd428c227d3680f04a86a1c8624a6a1 Author: John Johansen <john.johansen@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Fri May 6 18:57:12 2022 -0700 apparmor: Fix abi check to include v8 abi [ Upstream commit 1b5a6198f5a9d0aa5497da0dc4bcd4fc166ee516 ] The v8 abi is supported by the kernel but the userspace supported version check does not allow for it. This was missed when v8 was added due to a bug in the userspace compiler which was setting an older abi version for v8 encoding (which is forward compatible except on the network encoding). However it is possible to detect the network encoding by checking the policydb network support which the code does. The end result was that missing the abi flag worked until userspace was fixed and began correctly checking for the v8 abi version.
