[Christian Ehrhardt]

Hi,

FYI, your patch has been queued to stable release 19.11.9

Note it hasn't been pushed to http://dpdk.org/browse/dpdk-stable yet.
It will be pushed if I get no objections before 05/19/21. 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/cpaelzer/dpdk-stable-queue

This queued commit can be viewed at:
https://github.com/cpaelzer/dpdk-stable-queue/commit/a9a6ca9809d08400c8de693f7574ce7ccf62565a

Subject: [PATCH] net/bnxt: fix RSS context cleanup

[ upstream commit 670ab553841b2f2bbf59667465855b0869eea86b ]

The PMD is allocating an extra RSS context with each port start.
But it is freeing only one RSS context during port stop. So at some point
we run out of RSS contexts when we do multiple port stop/start sequences.
bnxt_hwrm_vnic_ctx_alloc() is called by bnxt_setup_one_vnic(), but
bnxt_hwrm_vnic_ctx_free() is not called in the corresponding
bnxt_free_one_vnic().

Fix this by calling bnxt_hwrm_vnic_ctx_free() in bnxt_free_one_vnic().

Fixes: 7fe5668d2ea3 ("net/bnxt: support VLAN filter and strip")
