Changes: 
 kernel-source-2.6.8 (2.6.8-14) unstable; urgency=high
 .
   * Backport more scsi-ioctl fixes: add CMD_WARNED,  remove dulicate
     safe_for_read(READ_BUFFER), add LOG_SENSE as read-ok and
     LOG_SELECT as write-ok, quieten scsi ioctl when asking for
     a lot of memory and failing. (Maximilian Attems)
 .
   * ia64-ptrace-speedup.dpatch
     Backport needed to form a base on top of which ia64-ptrace-fixes will
     apply. (dann frazier)
 .
   * [SECURITY] ia64-ptrace-fixes.dpatch
     Fix some corner cases in ia64 ptrace code; CAN-2005-0136
     (dann frazier).
 .
   * [SECURITY] ia64-unwind-fix.dpatch
     unw_unwind_to_user sanity check; CAN-2005-0135
     (dann frazier).
 .
   * Updated kernel-tree description from Martin F Krafft
     (Simon Horman)
 .
   * Updated apply script so it can handle point versions
     (Simon Horman)
 .
   * skb-reset-ip_summed.dpatch: resolve checksumming exploit in
     fragmented packet forwarding (Joshua Kwan)
 .
   * sparc64-nis-killer.dpatch: patch that fixes some compatibility functions
     that (as a side effect) caused NIS to flatten a sparc64 machine.
     closes: #295626 (Joshua Kwan)
 .
   * Turn ifeq into a shell construct to allow things to still work if the orig
     tarball is unavailable. (Joshua Kwan)
 .
   * au88x0-use-short-name.dpatch: Use CARD_SHORT_NAME in au88x0.c to allow
     card-specific driver names (CARD_SHORT_NAME is redefined by each driver.)
     (Joshua Kwan)
 .
   * proc-cmdline-mmput-leak.dpatch: [CAN-2004-1058] fix race that could
     allow user processes to read environment data from processes in the
     middle of spawning. (Joshua Kwan)
 .
   * 025-track_dummy_capability.dpatch, 027-track_dummy_capability.dpatch:
     [CAN-2004-1337] The dummy capabilities module wasn't keeping track of
     processes capabilities; so, when a capabilities module was loaded,
     all untracked processes would magically be given root capabilities.
     Backport from 2.6.10's kernel-source. (Joshua Kwan)
 .
   * setsid-race.dpatch: [CAN-2005-0178] fix setsid() race that could lead
     to a denial of service. (Joshua Kwan)

     privileged IO ports via OUTS instruction.
     (Simon Horman) (closes: #296700)
 .
   * ipv4-fragment-queues-1.dpatch, ipv4-fragment-queues-2.dpatch,
     ipv4-fragment-queues-3.dpatch, ipv4-fragment-queues-4.dpatch:
     fix potential information leak by making fragment queues private.
     (Joshua Kwan, Simon Horman)
 .
   * sparc64-sb1500-clock-2.6.dpatch by David Miller: enable recognition
     of the clock chip on SunBlade 1500, it won't boot otherwise.
     (Jurij Smakov).
 .
   * 2.6.11.2 [SECURITY] epoll: return proper error on overflow condition
     (Maximilian Attems)
 .
   * nfs-O_DIRECT-fix.dpatch: [CAN-2005-0207] set some things to NULL in
     an error condition to prevent some nondeterministic behavior.
     (Joshua Kwan)
 .

     console lockup on machines with sunsab serial controller (Jurij Smakov).
 .
   * nls-table-overflow.dpatch: [CAN-2005-0177] NLS ASCII table should be 256
     entries, not 128! (Joshua Kwan)
 .
   * [SECURITY] 109-binfmt_elf_loader_solar_designer_fixes.dpatch
     Fix from Solar Designer; the binfmt_elf load routines are returning
     incorrect values, and are not strict enough in checking the number of
     program headers (Andres Salomon).
 .
   * [SECURITY] 115-proc_file_read_nbytes_signedness_fix.dpatch
     Heap overflow fix in /proc; WDYBTGT3-1 on
     http://www.guninski.com/where_do_you_want_billg_to_go_today_3.html
     No CAN# assigned yet, afaik (Andres Salomon).
 .
   * [SECURITY] 116-n_tty_copy_from_read_buf_signedness_fixes.dpatch
     copy_from_read_buf() fix; WDYBTGT3-2 on
     http://www.guninski.com/where_do_you_want_billg_to_go_today_3.html
     No CAN#, yet (Andres Salomon).
 .
   * [SECURITY] 117-reiserfs_file_64bit_size_t_fixes.dpatch
     reiserfs integer fixes; WDYBTGT3-4 on
     http://www.guninski.com/where_do_you_want_billg_to_go_today_3.html
     (Andres Salomon).
 .
   * [SECURITY] 123-atm_get_addr_signedness_fix.dpatch
     Fix atm_get_addr()'s usage of its size arg, by making it
     unsigned.  WDYBTGT3-3 on
     http://www.guninski.com/where_do_you_want_billg_to_go_today_3.html
     (Andres Salomon).
 .
   * 143-sysfs_write_file_signedness_problem.dpatch
     sysfs_write_file assigns the result of fill_write_buffer (which is
     signed and returns negative upon error) to an unsigned int.  Clearly,
     bad and wrong.. (Andres Salomon)
