Hi,

FYI, your patch has been queued to LTS release 18.11.2

Note it hasn't been pushed to http://dpdk.org/browse/dpdk-stable yet.
It will be pushed if I get no objections before 05/13/19. So please
shout if anyone has objections.

Also note that after the patch there's a diff of the upstream commit vs the
patch applied to the branch. This will indicate if there was any rebasing
needed to apply to the stable branch. If there were code changes for rebasing
(ie: not only metadata diffs), please double check that the rebase was
correctly done.

Queued patches are on a temporary branch at:
https://github.com/kevintraynor/dpdk-stable-queue

This queued commit can be viewed at:
https://github.com/kevintraynor/dpdk-stable-queue/commit/ec060662b2f4030f5e549755c1935ebe864e65fe

Thanks.

Kevin Traynor

Subject: [PATCH] net/bnx2x: fix ramrod timeout

[ upstream commit 8bd31421c593e5f3e2ee2a4d7d3c6a74489838c6 ]

There is a race condition while processing RAMROD
completion in fast path queue through interrupt handler
and polling method.

Interrupt handler invoked from actual interrupt event
and from RAMROD processing polling flow may create a
situation where one flow will read and clear a fastpath
interrupt without actually processing the RAMROD completion.
Thus, causing a RAMROD timeout even though HW sent an
completion event.

Fix this by introducing an atomic variable which will be
set only when interrupt handler needs to process RAMROD
completion.

Fixes: 540a211084a7 ("bnx2x: driver core")
