[Xueming Li]

Hi,

FYI, your patch has been queued to stable release 23.11.5

Note it hasn't been pushed to http://dpdk.org/browse/dpdk-stable yet.
It will be pushed if I get no objections before 08/10/25. 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://git.dpdk.org/dpdk-stable/log/?h=23.11-staging

This queued commit can be viewed at:
https://git.dpdk.org/dpdk-stable/commit/?h=23.11-staging&id=e080450123ed3b68872416741426a313d555a398

Subject: [PATCH] net/octeon_ep: increase mailbox timeout
Cc: Xueming Li <xuemingl at nvidia.com>

[ upstream commit e90979eebbea093f6bab2d7c222fc5f5c9a85eff ]

Extend the mailbox timeout to 2500 ms in the driver
to ensure firmware responses are received, preventing premature
timeouts in mailbox request handling. This improves reliability
of control network APIs, addressing issues where the previous
timeout was too short for consistent operation.

Fixes: c836a7ba33ee ("net/octeon_ep: support mailbox between VF and PF")
