I've also done my own backport of the CVE fix to 4.1 (and will also do an update when a 4.1 -stable picks up the same change). I've built and booted both 4.1 and 4.4 to make sure everything is sane, and I have more builds running for additional coverage. I'd consider these two commits as candidates for the 2.2 release if there is another -rc build, they are also safe for backporting to the -stable branches that have the linux-yocto 4.1 and 4.4 kernels, since these are not new features and bug/CVE fixes. Cheers, Bruce The following changes since commit 1f75397b7244e989b3cec138e6b2ec0b0eaea42c: linux-yocto/4.8: update to v4.8.3 (2016-10-21 11:29:30 -0400) are available in the git repository at: git://git.pokylinux.org/poky-contrib zedd/kernel http://git.pokylinux.org/cgit.cgi/poky-contrib/log/?h=zedd/kernel Bruce Ashfield (2): linux-yocto/4.4: update to v4.4.26 linux-yocto/4.1: fix CVE-2016-5195 (dirtycow) meta/recipes-kernel/linux/linux-yocto-rt_4.1.bb | 4 ++-- meta/recipes-kernel/linux/linux-yocto-rt_4.4.bb | 6 +++--- meta/recipes-kernel/linux/linux-yocto-tiny_4.1.bb | 4 ++-- meta/recipes-kernel/linux/linux-yocto-tiny_4.4.bb | 6 +++--- meta/recipes-kernel/linux/linux-yocto_4.1.bb | 18 +++++++++--------- meta/recipes-kernel/linux/linux-yocto_4.4.bb | 20 ++++++++++---------- 6 files changed, 29 insertions(+), 29 deletions(-) -- 2.5.0
