patch 'net/mlx5: fix MTU initialization' has been queued to stable release 23.11.6

[Shani Peretz]

Hi,

FYI, your patch has been queued to stable release 23.11.6

Note it hasn't been pushed to http://dpdk.org/browse/dpdk-stable yet.
It will be pushed if I get no objections before 12/26/25. 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/shanipr/dpdk-stable

This queued commit can be viewed at:
https://github.com/shanipr/dpdk-stable/commit/dc0a79d38533a4b7d3795beb8eec86f93e1f182c

Thanks.

Shani

Subject: [PATCH] net/mlx5: fix MTU initialization

[ upstream commit ee6aa2cb66512cd57b69ffe07efbd7f09789c9b2 ]

Currently with mlx5 PMD, rte_eth_dev_get_mtu() doesn't return
the MTU the device was set with, but the default one.
It happens because mlx5_dev_spawn() is not setting the eth_dev->data->mtu
field after getting the actual MTU from the driver,
so the default value is kept.
This patch fixes the issue by retrieving setting the value of priv->mtu
to eth_dev->data->mtu.

Bugzilla ID: 1768
Fixes: 2eb4d0107acc ("net/mlx5: refactor PCI probing on Linux")
