Hi,

FYI, your patch has been queued to stable release 21.11.1

Note it hasn't been pushed to http://dpdk.org/browse/dpdk-stable yet.
It will be pushed if I get no objections before 02/26/22. 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/kevintraynor/dpdk-stable

This queued commit can be viewed at:
https://github.com/kevintraynor/dpdk-stable/commit/5831db3bab8267894558c1a74f4fb42747fba5e8

Thanks.

Kevin

Subject: [PATCH] crypto/ipsec_mb: fix tainted data for session

[ upstream commit 21bdbf24321de9f0336a0e6e0bc618a1e094aa4c ]

Downcasting a void * to struct aesni_gcm_session * caused the session
data to be treated as tainted.
Removing the void * temporary variable and adding a cast avoids this
issue.

Coverity issue: 374377
Fixes: 746825e5c0ea ("crypto/ipsec_mb: move aesni_gcm PMD")
