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 05/30/22. 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/b839853e83ea8505b040aa1fd7c0456223f4451d

Thanks.

Kevin

Subject: [PATCH] net/tap: fix interrupt handler freeing

[ upstream commit 0809d870fc22916627ec5e177d4c138c12196321 ]

rte_pmd_tun/tap_probe() allocates pmd->intr_handle in eth_dev_tap_create()
and it should not be freed until rte_pmd_tap_remove() is called.

Inspection of tap_rx_intr_vec_set() shows that the call to
tap_tx_intr_vec_uninstall() was calling rte_intr_instance_free() but
tap_tx_intr_vec_install() can then be immediately called, and this then
uses pmd->intr_handle without it being reallocated.

Move rte_intr_instance_free() call from tap_tx_intr_vec_uninstall()
to rte_pmd_tap_remove().

Fixes: d61138d4f0e2 ("drivers: remove direct access to interrupt handle")
