2019-09-25 16:27:42 Connor Kuehl description There was several problems reported upstream: 1/ 56c5ee1a5823: xfrm interface: fix memory leak on creation https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net.git/commit/?id=56c5ee1a5823 2/ xfrm interface: avoid corruption on changelink http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/1130240/ 3/ xfrm interface: ifname may be wrong in logs http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/1130241/ 4/ xfrm interface: fix list corruption for x-netns http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/1130385/ BugLink: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1836261 [Impact] Upstream has recently received a number of bug fixes that resolve kernel panics, memory leaks, and list handling for virtual xfrm interfaces that were debuted in 4.19. [Test Case] 3 of the 5 patches have test cases in their commit message for reproducing the fault they address. Another patch prevents including a stale name in the log files. And the other patch that doesn't have an explicit test case improves list handling. [Regression Potential] This patchset contains a nontrivial amount of changes. However, the heavier patches contain test cases that they resolve the regressions they were created for. They've been upstream since July and I don't see any follow up Fixes commits targeting these. The blast radius is "only" the xfrm interface but this is smoke tested and if any dependents rely on it for core functionality they might exercise it and would possibly notice any issues by now as well. Original bug description follows: -------------------------------------------- There was several problems reported upstream: 1/ 56c5ee1a5823: xfrm interface: fix memory leak on creation https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net.git/commit/?id=56c5ee1a5823 2/ xfrm interface: avoid corruption on changelink http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/1130240/ 3/ xfrm interface: ifname may be wrong in logs http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/1130241/ 4/ xfrm interface: fix list corruption for x-netns http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/1130385/
