This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled vhost_net: revert upend_idx only on retriable error 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: vhost_net-revert-upend_idx-only-on-retriable-error.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 efaa902396e0e0c6a35d6d758bf63ca4b2c3a0dd Author: Andrey Smetanin <asmetanin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Mon Apr 24 23:44:11 2023 +0300 vhost_net: revert upend_idx only on retriable error [ Upstream commit 1f5d2e3bab16369d5d4b4020a25db4ab1f4f082c ] Fix possible virtqueue used buffers leak and corresponding stuck in case of temporary -EIO from sendmsg() which is produced by tun driver while backend device is not up. In case of no-retriable error and zcopy do not revert upend_idx to pass packet data (that is update used_idx in corresponding vhost_zerocopy_signal_used()) as if packet data has been transferred successfully. v2: set vq->heads[ubuf->desc].len equal to VHOST_DMA_DONE_LEN in case of fake successful transmit.
