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/f05bbce1851d34a86ad6c1b7577916d8c8ae7dcf

Thanks.

Kevin

Subject: [PATCH] vdpa/mlx5: workaround queue stop with traffic

[ upstream commit b5e51edfbe18ee30b8fed5efdb09f2ab4c8a05a0 ]

When the event thread polls traffic and a virtq is stopping, the FW loses
synchronization in the virtq indexes.

It causes LM failure on synchronization between the HOST indexes to
the GUEST indexes.

Unset the event thread before the queue stop in the LM process.

Fixes: 31b9c29c86af ("vdpa/mlx5: support close and config operations")
