Hi,

FYI, your patch has been queued to stable release 24.11.4

Note it hasn't been pushed to http://dpdk.org/browse/dpdk-stable yet.
It will be pushed if I get no objections before 11/05/25. 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/7a28479ec749426cf5f36f6d0dac984b97b26316

Thanks.

Kevin

Subject: [PATCH] net/ena/base: fix unsafe memcpy on invalid memory

[ upstream commit b70db0912a6a181ecf513a4eef61153d1063c0ae ]

The return status check was placed after a memcpy operation,
which could result in copying from an invalid memory region
if the feature fetch failed.

Fixes: b68309be44c0 ("net/ena/base: update communication layer for the ENAv2")
