This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled net/mlx5e: Fix error flow in representor failing to add vport rx rule to the 6.3-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-error-flow-in-representor-failing-to-a.patch and it can be found in the queue-6.3 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 2761476209b1d7a2a6595e508b39273b124d1a72 Author: Roi Dayan <roid@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Wed Mar 29 15:24:32 2023 +0300 net/mlx5e: Fix error flow in representor failing to add vport rx rule [ Upstream commit 0a6b069cc60d68d33b4f6e7dd7f1adc3ec749766 ] On representor init rx error flow the flow steering pointer is being released so mlx5e_attach_netdev() doesn't have a valid fs pointer in its error flow. Make sure the pointer is nullified when released and add a check in mlx5e_fs_cleanup() to verify fs is not null as representor cleanup callback would be called anyway.
