Hi,

FYI, your patch has been queued to stable release 24.11.7

Note it hasn't been pushed to http://dpdk.org/browse/dpdk-stable yet.
It will be pushed if I get no objections before 07/05/26. 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/852e9ca475e9337f6c2a13e3998c999193256dcb

Thanks.

Luca Boccassi

Subject: [PATCH] test/security: remove fast-free Tx flag

[ upstream commit 026fb64a26aa52981c378fe3dcf2c68383573b9c ]

The FAST_FREE Tx offload flag is an optimization that may not be
supported by all drivers, but the test unconditionally sets this as part
of the Tx config. Since it's an optimization that should not affect test
correctness, and since this is a unit test, not perf test, just remove
the flag.

Fixes: 86e2487c5f2c ("test/security: add cases for inline IPsec offload")
