Hello,
any particular reason why this fix
https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=79dc7e3f1cd323be4c81aa1a94faa1b3ed987fb2
was missed from stable 4.8 line? Apparently the bug being fixed has
its own https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2016-9919
Thank you for your hard work and best regards
You should always check the networking -stable queue before asking
such questions:
http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/bundle/davem/stable/?submitter=&state=*&q=&archive=
Every patch sitting there is queued up and will be submitted to -stable
at some time in the next week or two, or whenever I get around to vetting
and submitting -stable changes.
The patch you are asking about it in fact in there, and will be attended
to at an appropriate time.
Thank you David for prompt reply. I guess perhaps you are not aware that
patches to stable line 4.8 might not be accepted after Sun Jan 8th
(yesterday), and it will be considered EOL by version 4.8.17 ?
Best regards
B.
