This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled can: mcp251xfd: mcp251xfd_ring_init(): check TX-coalescing configuration 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: can-mcp251xfd-mcp251xfd_ring_init-check-tx-coalescin.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 7a9e30a14ca54f144fc0aae0ac58651a37f8de67 Author: Marc Kleine-Budde <mkl@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Fri Jul 5 17:24:42 2024 +0200 can: mcp251xfd: mcp251xfd_ring_init(): check TX-coalescing configuration [ Upstream commit ac2b81eb8b2d104033560daea886ee84531e3d0a ] When changing the interface from CAN-CC to CAN-FD mode the old coalescing parameters are re-used. This might cause problem, as the configured parameters are too big for CAN-FD mode. During testing an invalid TX coalescing configuration has been seen. The problem should be been fixed in the previous patch, but add a safeguard here to ensure that the number of TEF coalescing buffers (if configured) is exactly the half of all TEF buffers.
