Hi,

FYI, your patch has been queued to LTS release 18.11.2

Note it hasn't been pushed to http://dpdk.org/browse/dpdk-stable yet.
It will be pushed if I get no objections before 05/13/19. 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/719c8cc68f4d9abaea6e55f1e652353a42eaa108

Thanks.

Kevin Traynor

Subject: [PATCH] net/virtio: fix buffer leak on VLAN insert

[ upstream commit 8f37e38241f291f2ae8fa7e8d0d4ec3eae50b2de ]

The function rte_vlan_insert may allocate a new buffer for the
vlan header and return a different mbuf than originally passed.
In this case, the stored mbuf in txm[] array could point to wrong
buffer.

Fixes: dd856dfcb9e7 ("virtio: use any layout on Tx")
