Package: src:linux Version: 3.13~rc6-1~exp1 Severity: important The patch "bugfix/all/firmware_class-log-every-success-and-failure.patch" was incorrectly rebased onto 3.13, causing the firmware loader to continue looping over the firmware search path after successfully loading firmware. (It would also leak memory.) This was not noticed because firmware is usually loaded from /lib/firmware which is at the end of the path. This bug is present in jessie and later suites. Ben. -- System Information: Debian Release: stretch/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'stable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: amd64 Kernel: Linux 4.2.0-1-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_GB.utf8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system)
