[dpdk-stable] please help backporting some patches to stable release 18.02.2

[dpdk-stable] please help backporting some patches to stable release 18.02.2

[luca.boccassi]

Hi commit authors (and maintainers),

I didn't manage to apply following commits from upstream to stable branch
18.02: conflict happens. I'm wondering can the authors check the following
list and backport those patches belong to you?

FYI, branch 18.02 is located at tree:
   git://dpdk.org/dpdk-stable

It'd be great if you could do that before Friday, if necessary. Also, please add a
heading line like below before the commit log body:
    [ backported from upstream commit xxx ]

Example: http://dpdk.org/browse/dpdk-stable/commit/?h=16.07&id=c4831394c7d1944d8ec27d52c22997f20d19718e

Also please mention the target stable in the subject line, as we have more than one
at the same time, for example:

    [PATCH 18.02] foo/bar: fix baz

With git send-email, this can be achieved by appending the parameter:

    --subject-prefix='18.02'

Please let me know if you have any comments, say, need more time, or it's
worthless to packport it. And please send it to "stable@dpdk.org", but not
"dev@dpdk.org".

Thanks.

Luca Boccassi

> c6ae7de0d  Maxime Coquelin  vhost: fix indirect descriptors table translation size

This one is already backported in v18.02.1, as it was part of the CVE
series:

commit 92f155720d5911850898bac1526ba36d493cc666
Author: Maxime Coquelin <maxime.coquelin@redhat.com>
Date:   Thu Apr 19 15:28:35 2018 +0200

     vhost: fix indirect descriptors table translation size

     This patch fixes the size passed at the indirect descriptor
     table translation time, which is the len field of the descriptor,
     and not a single descriptor.

     This issue has been assigned CVE-2018-1059.

     Fixes: 62fdb8255ae7 ("vhost: use the guest IOVA to host VA helper")

     Signed-off-by: Maxime Coquelin <maxime.coquelin@redhat.com>

Cheers,
Maxime

You can drop this patch, as it depends on another patch that is not in
18.02.

This patch makes part of a full cleanup of MLX5 PMD, which does not
brings any functionality only fixes and API compliances [1].
It has been done to fix some issues found by Olivier Matz [2] in 18.02.

Do you think it is possible to bring the full series into stable branch?

If it doesn't break API/ABI it's fine, feel free to send a series to
stable@ only using --prefix 18.02

[dpdk-stable] please help backporting some patches to stable release 18.02.2

[luca.boccassi]

Hi commit authors (and maintainers),

I didn't manage to apply following commits from upstream to stable branch
18.02: conflict happens. I'm wondering can the authors check the following
list and backport those patches belong to you?

FYI, branch 18.02 is located at tree:
   git://dpdk.org/dpdk-stable

It'd be great if you could do that in one or two weeks. Also, please add a
heading line like below before the commit log body:
    [ backported from upstream commit xxx ]

Example: http://dpdk.org/browse/dpdk-stable/commit/?h=16.07&id=c4831394c7d1944d8ec27d52c22997f20d19718e

Also please mention the target stable in the subject line, as we have more than one
at the same time, for example:

    [PATCH 18.02] foo/bar: fix baz

With git send-email, this can be achieved by appending the parameter:

    --subject-prefix='18.02'

Please let me know if you have any comments, say, need more time, or it's
worthless to packport it. And please send it to "stable@dpdk.org", but not
"dev@dpdk.org".

NOTE: for the patches using strlcpy, the issue is that strlcpy is not available
in 18.02, so it would have to be backported as well.

Thanks.

[Richardson, Bruce]

Hi Luca,

my patch: "89200580e  Bruce Richardson kernel: fix cross-build of Linux modules with meson" depends on the patches moving the drivers to the kernel folder. As it's for meson build which was only in beta in that release, I don't think it's worth backporting.

uh... OK.

I dunno yet the value of, or reason for, or the solution of, any of the 
conflicts, I will look at them; same for 16.11.7.

But obviously, I had no idea I was signing up for this kind of time 
travel work.  Please cut me some slack accordingly back in the future 
for getting my other patches in :-)  (so I can enjoy more time travel 
beatings later).

Ok, Then I would wait for the strlcpy work to be back ported first then I can port my patches in future.
Any comments let me know.

I am studying 18.02 stuff now... actually most of it is not conflict but 
I assume just missing strlcpy.  I did not import that in the first place 
but I will try to dig out and add whatever patch did add it... in other 
projects this is entirely the work of the stable branch maintainer... 
but no worries...

[dpdk-stable] [PATCH 0/5] 18.02 Requested backports

[Andy Green]

The following series backports the requested stuff.

One patch is dropped because the first patch does the right thing
already.

BR's original strlcpy patch that added it in 18.05 is added to the
series.

Build-tested on trusty.

[dpdk-stable] [PATCH 1/5] eal: support strlcpy function

[Andy Green]

From: Bruce Richardson <bruce.richardson@intel.com>

The strncpy function is error prone for doing "safe" string copies, so
we generally try to use "snprintf" instead in the code. The function
"strlcpy" is a better alternative, since it better conveys the
intention of the programmer, and doesn't suffer from the non-null
terminating behaviour of it's n'ed brethern.

The downside of this function is that it is not available by default
on linux, though standard in the BSD's. It is available on most
distros by installing "libbsd" package.

This patch therefore provides the following in rte_string_fns.h to ensure
that strlcpy is available there:
* for BSD, include string.h as normal
* if RTE_USE_LIBBSD is set, include <bsd/string.h>
* if not set, fallback to snprintf for strlcpy

Using make build system, the RTE_USE_LIBBSD is a hard-coded value to "n",
but when using meson, it's automatically set based on what is available
on the platform.

[dpdk-stable] [PATCH 2/5] bus/pci: fix size of driver name buffer

[Andy Green]

Variable dri_name is a pointer and it is incorrect to use its
size as the buffer size. Caller knows the buffer size and
it is safer to pass it explicitly.

Kind regards,

[dpdk-stable] please help backporting some patches to stable release 18.02.2

[luca.boccassi]

Hi commit authors (and maintainers),

I didn't manage to apply following commits from upstream to stable branch
18.02: conflict happens. I'm wondering can the authors check the following
list and backport those patches belong to you?

FYI, branch 18.02 is located at tree:
   git://dpdk.org/dpdk-stable

It'd be great if you could do that in one or two weeks. Also, please add a
heading line like below before the commit log body:
    [ backported from upstream commit xxx ]

Example: http://dpdk.org/browse/dpdk-stable/commit/?h=16.07&id=c4831394c7d1944d8ec27d52c22997f20d19718e

Also please mention the target stable in the subject line, as we have more than one
at the same time, for example:

    [PATCH 18.02] foo/bar: fix baz

With git send-email, this can be achieved by appending the parameter:

    --subject-prefix='PATCH 18.02'

Please let me know if you have any comments, say, need more time, or it's
worthless to packport it. And please send it to "stable@dpdk.org", but not
"dev@dpdk.org".

Thanks.

Luca Boccassi
