Hi,

FYI, your patch has been queued to stable release 20.11.1

Note it hasn't been pushed to http://dpdk.org/browse/dpdk-stable yet.
It will be pushed if I get no objections before 02/07/21. 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/9129f6275b6f856e064624d71fbba76ea57e4530

Thanks.

Luca Boccassi

Subject: [PATCH] net/ixgbe: fix configuration of max frame size

[ upstream commit 15cfb0bfc4968e8a9da49c07ee2e57c9cd947473 ]

For some types of NIC, jumbo frame is not supported in IOV mode,
so if a VF requests to configure the frame size to not bigger
than IXGBE_ETH_MAX_LEN, the kernel driver returns 0, but the DPDK
ixgbe PMD returns -1, this will cause the VF to fail to start
when the PF driven by DPDK ixgbe PMD.

This patch keeps ixgbe PMD's handling mode consistent with kernel
driver in above situation.

In addition, the value set by the command IXGBE_VF_SET_LPE
represents the max frame size, not the mtu.

Fixes: 1b9ea09c067b ("ixgbe: support X550")
Fixes: 95a27b3ba5f5 ("net/ixgbe: enable jumbo frame for VF")
