Bug Description
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 v4.15.6 upstream stable
patch set is now available. It should be included in the Ubuntu
kernel as well.
TEST CASE: TBD
The following patches from the v4.15.6 stable release shall be applied:
tun: fix tun_napi_
ptr_ring: fail early if queue occupies more than KMALLOC_MAX_SIZE
ptr_ring: try vmalloc() when kmalloc() fails
