This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled octeontx2-af: fix infinite loop in unmapping NPC counter to the 5.10-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: octeontx2-af-fix-infinite-loop-in-unmapping-npc-coun.patch and it can be found in the queue-5.10 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 38f02cfbbb7e8ead205cdfacc5e9cf6133e9ace6 Author: Hariprasad Kelam <hkelam@xxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Thu Mar 18 19:45:48 2021 +0530 octeontx2-af: fix infinite loop in unmapping NPC counter [ Upstream commit 64451b98306bf1334a62bcd020ec92bdb4cb68db ] unmapping npc counter works in a way by traversing all mcam entries to find which mcam rule is associated with counter. But loop cursor variable 'entry' is not incremented before checking next mcam entry which resulting in infinite loop. This in turn hogs the kworker thread forever and no other mbox message is processed by AF driver after that. Fix this by updating entry value before checking next mcam entry.
