This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled net/mlx5: Fix io_eq_size and event_eq_size params validation to the 6.1-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-mlx5-fix-io_eq_size-and-event_eq_size-params-val.patch and it can be found in the queue-6.1 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 1ba8d29d8b0273d2ff517154dab9893183a5a812 Author: Shay Drory <shayd@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Sun Dec 18 12:42:14 2022 +0200 net/mlx5: Fix io_eq_size and event_eq_size params validation [ Upstream commit 44aee8ea15ac205490a41b00cbafcccbf9f7f82b ] io_eq_size and event_eq_size params are of param type DEVLINK_PARAM_TYPE_U32. But, the validation callback is addressing them as DEVLINK_PARAM_TYPE_U16. This cause mismatch in validation in big-endian systems, in which values in range were rejected while 268500991 was accepted. Fix it by checking the U32 value in the validation callback.
