Hi,

FYI, your patch has been queued to stable release 20.11.5

Note it hasn't been pushed to http://dpdk.org/browse/dpdk-stable yet.
It will be pushed if I get no objections before 02/20/22. 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/964a78f4be1e1e5be526541d8f1e00494946f641

Thanks.

Luca Boccassi

Subject: [PATCH] net/sfc: do not push fast free offload to default TxQ config

[ upstream commit f67615ea626e23e61b71d27f894fe9a4ef716df3 ]

Doing so is wrong since fast free is an adapter-wide offload.

Technically, the offending commit (see "Fixes" tag) does not
induce failures, however, such started to occur after commit
a4996bd89c42 ("ethdev: new Rx/Tx offloads API") had shown up,
because of the strict offload validation in the generic code.

Fixes: c78d280e88ef ("net/sfc: convert to new Tx offload API")
