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 03/06/22. 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/50f3a03f7555ad22852c64d0ee60bd18c4188dd2

Thanks.

Kevin

Subject: [PATCH] net/mlx5: fix sibling device config check

[ upstream commit dcbaafdc8f70987c6b610af7d43817b560fb646b ]

The MLX5 net driver supports "probe again". In probing again, it
creates a new ethdev under an existing infiniband device context.

Sibling devices sharing infiniband device context should have compatible
configurations, so some of the devargs given in the probe again, the
ones that are mainly relevant to the sharing device context are sent to
the mlx5_dev_check_sibling_config function which makes sure that they
compatible its siblings.
However, the arguments are adjusted according to the capability of the
device, and the function compares the arguments of the probe again
before the adjustment with the arguments of the siblings after the
adjustment. A user who sends the same values to all siblings may fail in
this comparison if he requested something that the device does not
support and adjusted.

This patch moves the call to the mlx5_dev_check_sibling_config function
after the relevant adjustments.

Fixes: 92d5dd483450 ("net/mlx5: check sibling device configurations mismatch")
Fixes: 2d241515ebaf ("net/mlx5: add devarg for extensive metadata support")
