patch 'app/testpmd: fix Tx preparation in checksum engine' has been queued to stable release 21.11.4

[Kevin Traynor]

Hi,

FYI, your patch has been queued to stable release 21.11.4

Note it hasn't been pushed to http://dpdk.org/browse/dpdk-stable yet.
It will be pushed if I get no objections before 03/20/23. 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

This queued commit can be viewed at:
https://github.com/kevintraynor/dpdk-stable/commit/0a4ce1a382b90ad599732f317cbcecc5b7e23fb4

Thanks.

Kevin

Subject: [PATCH] app/testpmd: fix Tx preparation in checksum engine

[ upstream commit 88a0b0f3858bf430616fe2bcac6f3eee05c383f5 ]

"unprepared" packets could get to the wire in the retry loop.

Split packets freeing in two stages: one for preparation failure, and
one for transmission failure.
Adjust dropped counter update accordingly.

Fixes: 6b520d54ebfe ("app/testpmd: use Tx preparation in checksum engine")
