Hi,

FYI, your patch has been queued to stable release 21.11.8

Note it hasn't been pushed to http://dpdk.org/browse/dpdk-stable yet.
It will be pushed if I get no objections before 08/28/24. 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/5bc9924c52d50593a476ebaf94c5342daa85a84f

Thanks.

Kevin

Subject: [PATCH] fbarray: fix incorrect lookbehind behavior

[ upstream commit 8e3712928716a1deb8857c971865aa15dc436b04 ]

Currently, whenever first bit of current index mask is set
(meaning, there is potentially a run starting at the start of the mask),
lookbehind loop is entered.
In that loop, if the last bit of lookbehind mask is not set,
the lookbehind is stopped, and the current lookbehind mask index
is assigned to current index mask.
However, because at that point we are inside a while-loop that
decrements current index mask after each iteration,
this results in erroneous mask index decrement.

Fix lookbehind to avoid erroneous decrement, and add corresponding
unit test.

Fixes: e1ca5dc86226 ("fbarray: add reverse finding of chunk")
