Hi,

FYI, your patch has been queued to stable release 21.11.6

Note it hasn't been pushed to http://dpdk.org/browse/dpdk-stable yet.
It will be pushed if I get no objections before 11/21/23. 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/587aea0f91f7170f6812d248915f0c60aed3057d

Thanks.

Kevin

Subject: [PATCH] vhost: fix check on virtqueue access in in-flight getter

[ upstream commit 288cd1f8ca3ebaf20aeed92966da9020a5793852 ]

Acquiring the access lock is not enough to ensure
virtqueue's metadata such as vring pointers are valid.

The access status must also be checked.

Fixes: 0c0935c5f794 ("vhost: allow to check in-flight packets for async vhost")
