Hi,

FYI, your patch has been queued to LTS release 18.11.1

Note it hasn't been pushed to http://dpdk.org/browse/dpdk-stable yet.
It will be pushed if I get no objections before 01/11/19. 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.

Thanks.

Kevin Traynor

Subject: [PATCH] malloc: fix finding maximum contiguous IOVA size

[ upstream commit 6d09256148567807b772347ec4ac363c4bcb6b5a ]

malloc_elem_find_max_iova_contig() could return invalid size due to a
missing sanity check. The following gdb output shows how 'cur_size' can be
invalid in find_biggest_element().

	(gdb) p/x cur_size
	$4 = 0xffffffffffe42900
	(gdb) p elem
	$1 = (struct malloc_elem *) 0x12e842000
	(gdb) p *elem
	$2 = {heap = 0x7ffff7ff387c, prev = 0x12e831fc0, next =
		0x12e842900, free_list = {le_next = 0x109538000, le_prev =
		0x7ffff7ff3894}, msl = 0x7ffff7ff107c, state = ELEM_FREE,
		pad = 0, size = 2304}
	(gdb) p *elem->msl
	$5 = {{base_va = 0x100200000, addr_64 = 4297064448}, page_sz =
		2097152, socket_id = 0, version = 790, len = 17179869184,
		external = 0, memseg_arr = {name = "memseg-2048k-0-0",
		'\000' <repeats 47 times>, count = 493, len = 8192, elt_sz
		= 48, data = 0x10002e000, rwlock = {cnt = 0}}}
