This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled net/mlx5: Devcom, serialize devcom registration 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: net-mlx5-devcom-serialize-devcom-registration.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 f27003cf979e055aab96eae5c34d01a898f916a1 Author: Shay Drory <shayd@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue May 2 13:36:42 2023 +0300 net/mlx5: Devcom, serialize devcom registration [ Upstream commit 1f893f57a3bf9fe1f4bcb25b55aea7f7f9712fe7 ] From one hand, mlx5 driver is allowing to probe PFs in parallel. From the other hand, devcom, which is a share resource between PFs, is registered without any lock. This might resulted in memory problems. Hence, use the global mlx5_dev_list_lock in order to serialize devcom registration.
