Hi,

FYI, your patch has been queued to stable release 21.11.2

Note it hasn't been pushed to http://dpdk.org/browse/dpdk-stable yet.
It will be pushed if I get no objections before 07/08/22. 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/5991d25b7489739b2b8d7c9af1c264f6a7f2988d

Thanks.

Luca Boccassi

Subject: [PATCH] net/vhost: fix deadlock on vring state change

[ upstream commit 193edd75a94fe8d0d633d1702109779fd7b7d6a0 ]

If vring state changes after pmd starts working, the locked vring
notifies pmd, thus calling update_queuing_status(), the latter
will wait for pmd to finish accessing vring, while pmd is also
waiting for vring to be unlocked, thus causing deadlock.

Actually, update_queuing_status() only needs to wait while
destroy/stopping the device, but not in other cases.

This patch adds a flag for whether or not to wait to fix this issue.

Fixes: 1ce3c7fe149f ("net/vhost: emulate device start/stop behavior")
