This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled net: stmmac: RX buffer size must be 16 byte aligned to the 4.9-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: net-stmmac-rx-buffer-size-must-be-16-byte-aligned.patch and it can be found in the queue-4.9 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit ab94e37305a382f6caede8ca55198987b0c85605 Author: Jose Abreu <Jose.Abreu@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Wed Dec 18 11:17:40 2019 +0100 net: stmmac: RX buffer size must be 16 byte aligned [ Upstream commit 8d558f0294fe92e04af192e221d0d0f6a180ee7b ] We need to align the RX buffer size to at least 16 byte so that IP doesn't mis-behave. This is required by HW.
