patch 'net/mlx5: reject jump to root table' has been queued to stable release 21.11.1

[Kevin Traynor]

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/37d27abc59d3c56577cb31877741c3d6255bedb1

Thanks.

Kevin

Subject: [PATCH] net/mlx5: reject jump to root table

[ upstream commit 87b26522f7ff65375fb1d773a7f93c70bf857b96 ]

Currently root table as destination is not supported.
The jump action which finally be translated to underlying root table in
rdma-core should be rejected.

Fixes: f78f747f41d0 ("net/mlx5: allow jump to group lower than current")
