This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled net/mlx5e: Fix wrong features assignment in case of error to the 5.15-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-mlx5e-fix-wrong-features-assignment-in-case-of-e.patch and it can be found in the queue-5.15 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 28d18fe129915b757906f23fc095ab72b1903856 Author: Gal Pressman <gal@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Mon Nov 29 11:08:41 2021 +0200 net/mlx5e: Fix wrong features assignment in case of error [ Upstream commit 992d8a4e38f0527f24e273ce3a9cd6dea1a6a436 ] In case of an error in mlx5e_set_features(), 'netdev->features' must be updated with the correct state of the device to indicate which features were updated successfully. To do that we maintain a copy of 'netdev->features' and update it after successful feature changes, so we can assign it to back to 'netdev->features' if needed. However, since not all netdev features are handled by the driver (e.g. GRO/TSO/etc), some features may not be updated correctly in case of an error updating another feature. For example, while requesting to disable TSO (feature which is not handled by the driver) and enable HW-GRO, if an error occurs during HW-GRO enable, 'oper_features' will be assigned with 'netdev->features' and HW-GRO turned off. TSO will remain enabled in such case, which is a bug. To solve that, instead of using 'netdev->features' as the baseline of 'oper_features' and changing it on set feature success, use 'features' instead and update it in case of errors.
