[Xen-devel] tmem/XSA-15 backport?

[Dan Magenheimer <dan.magenheimer@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Once zduan's tmem restore fix is applied, all known
tmem security issues have been resolved and tested
and tmem is fully functional again in xen-unstable,
including save/restore.

I'd like to recommend that all tmem patches be backported
to 4.1-stable and 4.2-stable prior to the next
point release and preferably asap.

Auditing activities are being conducted separately under
Konrad's supervision, but it seems wise to apply known
security patches to released trees before any users/distros
update.

Comments or objections?

Thanks,
Dan

P.S. Some work remains for tmem to always work properly
with "xl create" but "xm create" works fine.
