Hi,
FYI, your patch has been queued to stable release 24.11.2
Note it hasn't been pushed to http://dpdk.org/browse/dpdk-stable yet.
It will be pushed if I get no objections before 03/28/25. 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/kevintraynor/dpdk-stable
This queued commit can be viewed at:
https://github.com/kevintraynor/dpdk-stable/commit/3057c26c7f113b530fe2d7d4bb2687a4ed6f1cb5
Thanks.
Kevin

[ upstream commit 5b0b6742d222299f3369eeeaa484639ef0134db3 ]
For non template API on top of HWS,
it’s validation function pointed to SWS legacy validation function,
which does not match HWS restrictions.
Added HWS validation function for non template rules.
Fixes: e38776c36c8a ("net/mlx5: introduce HWS for non-template flow API")
