Hi,

FYI, your patch has been queued to stable release 19.11.6

Note it hasn't been pushed to http://dpdk.org/browse/dpdk-stable yet.
It will be pushed if I get no objections before 11/11/20. 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/bluca/dpdk-stable

This queued commit can be viewed at:
https://github.com/bluca/dpdk-stable/commit/ed20f3a8ddd90b419d93d383765f6b4f6c93f3f9

Thanks.

Luca Boccassi

Subject: [PATCH] vhost: validate index in guest notification API

[ upstream commit 366374054b656e049188216e2fa44831749c2a21 ]

This patch validates the queue index parameter, in order
to ensure neither out-of-bound accesses nor NULL pointer
dereferencing happen.

Fixes: 9eed6bfd2efb ("vhost: allow to enable or disable features")
