Hi,

FYI, your patch has been queued to stable release 23.11.1

Note it hasn't been pushed to http://dpdk.org/browse/dpdk-stable yet.
It will be pushed if I get no objections before 03/31/24. 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://git.dpdk.org/dpdk-stable/log/?h=23.11-staging

This queued commit can be viewed at:
https://git.dpdk.org/dpdk-stable/commit/?h=23.11-staging&id=c655f20c8f5e55b625dd8f69036d699b821ef3b2

Thanks.

Subject: [PATCH] net/ixgbe: fix memoy leak after device init failure
Cc: Xueming Li <xuemingl at nvidia.com>

[ upstream commit 4d70ae0f1bb88e2aa100f5f7bf50b6484f0685cd ]

In ixgbe_ipsec_ctx_create() allocated memory for the 'security_ctx',
we should free it when errors occur, otherwise it will lead
to memory leak.

Fixes: 9a0752f498d2 ("net/ixgbe: enable inline IPsec")
