All,

with the goal of releasing around the end of the month, please point
out backport candidates you find missing from the respective staging
branches, but which you consider relevant. Note that commits

1c2ea5ee05 x86/hvm/dmop: fix EFAULT condition
4e383df865 x86/PV: fix/generalize guest nul selector handling

are already on my list.

Jan

I see there are outdated patches for this XSA still in xsa.git,
which I've now removed.

I can't seem to be able to confirm the difference your attached
image indicates - both xen.git and xsa.git have that change. I
could understand the tool spotting a difference in there being a
seemingly extra hunk changing xen/common/compat/grant_table.c
in xsa.git - this change was applied incrementally to the various
xen.git branches, as the issue was found (by osstest iirc) only
after the original patches had already gone in.

By the time you had sent the message, these had been applied for
several hours. But of course I don't know when you ran the script.

Jan,

I had sent the mail an hour after I ran the scripts (had a meeting in between). 

I will look into the issue with XSA 226
On commits c7783d9c26fc191862d9883da22387340b1fab18 & d6aad635097d901b96df650e87f04687c9fb7bd2: I have to look into why these didn’t get picked up.
Maybe there is a bug in the tool

Lars
