patch 'eventdev/eth_tx: fix adapter creation' has been queued to stable release 21.11.2

[Kevin Traynor]

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 06/27/22. 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/bd9ffc19616576754c457329406509dda74bdc6d

Thanks.

Kevin

Subject: [PATCH] eventdev/eth_tx: fix adapter creation

[ upstream commit 3d6e9dd493784d077b9a214a0937331fa05f8abf ]

During adapter create, memory is allocated for storing event port
configuration which is freed during adapter free. The following
error is seen during free "EAL: Error: Invalid memory"

The service data pointer storage for txa_service_data_array is
allocated during adapter create with incorrect size which is less
than the required size.
Initialization of this memory causes buffer overflow and result in
metadata overwrite of event port config memory allocated above
and results in the above error message during free.

Allocating the correct size of memory for txa_service_data_array
prevents overwriting other memory areas like event port config
memory.

Fixes: a3bbf2e09756 ("eventdev: add eth Tx adapter implementation")
