[dpdk-stable] patch 'net/bnxt: enforce IO barrier for doorbell command' has been queued to LTS release 18.11.6

[Kevin Traynor]

Hi,

FYI, your patch has been queued to LTS release 18.11.6

Note it hasn't been pushed to http://dpdk.org/browse/dpdk-stable yet.
It will be pushed if I get no objections before 12/10/19. So please
shout if anyone has objections.

Also note that after the patch there's a diff of the upstream commit vs the
patch applied to the branch. This will indicate if there was any rebasing
needed to apply to the stable branch. If there were code changes for rebasing
(ie: not only metadata diffs), please double check that the rebase was
correctly done.

Queued patches are on a temporary branch at:
https://github.com/kevintraynor/dpdk-stable-queue

This queued commit can be viewed at:
https://github.com/kevintraynor/dpdk-stable-queue/commit/a60ed73cd01caeaec580bedf3197e7a7b27f3bb2

Thanks.

Kevin.

Subject: [PATCH] net/bnxt: enforce IO barrier for doorbell command

[ upstream commit dda8e0e48723fc90e6222fcc1b04b94f240ae9b2 ]

The doorbell ringing operation requires a rte_io_mb immediately to make
the command complete and visible to the device before reading the
response, otherwise it may read stale or invalid responses.

Fixes: ca241d9a0952 ("net/bnxt: use I/O device memory read/write API")
