Hi,

FYI, your patch has been queued to stable release 22.11.8

Note it hasn't been pushed to http://dpdk.org/browse/dpdk-stable yet.
It will be pushed if I get no objections before 02/19/25. 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/bluca/dpdk-stable

This queued commit can be viewed at:
https://github.com/bluca/dpdk-stable/commit/00c8b88d3ccd0a4c0b73a78148b26758ddc5402c

Thanks.

Luca Boccassi

Subject: [PATCH] net/e1000/base: fix MAC address hash bit shift

[ upstream commit 1749e662f68ba6571ed81cd264cffd1107abc307 ]

In e1000_hash_mc_addr_generic() the expression:

"mc_addr[4] >> 8 - bit_shift", right shifting "mc_addr[4]"

shift by more than 7 bits always yields zero, so hash becomes not so
different. Add initialization with bit_shift = 1, and add a loop
condition to ensure bit_shift will be always in [1..8] range.

Fixes: af75078fece3 ("first public release")
