Hi,

FYI, your patch has been queued to stable release 24.11.9

Note it hasn't been pushed to http://dpdk.org/browse/dpdk-stable yet.
It will be pushed if I get no objections before 10/29/26. 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/e0110bf92b564ce81f4b2fae0c4e4be3de72b0ad

Thanks.

Luca Boccassi

Subject: [PATCH] net/bnxt: check flow RSS config

[ upstream commit 0e1c2d978c6b75a717563d594482fb2d124deace ]

The return value of bnxt_hwrm_vnic_rss_cfg() was not checked in
bnxt_flow.c. As a result, RSS configuration failures could be
silently ignored and the flow setup could continue with an
incorrect VNIC configuration.

Check the return status and propagate the error to the caller.

Fixes: adc0f81c6552 ("net/bnxt: support RSS action")
