[Kevin Traynor <ktraynor@redhat.com>]

Hi,

FYI, your patch has been queued to stable release 21.11.1

Note it hasn't been pushed to http://dpdk.org/browse/dpdk-stable yet.
It will be pushed if I get no objections before 03/14/22. 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/9bdcba122b7652766ebce143dcc8a1717ded183b

Thanks.

Kevin

Subject: [PATCH] net/bnxt: fix null dereference in session cleanup

[ upstream commit a2dfcd1ff609f5a4fd3b65774618a35c5c9f73c6 ]

In tf_session_create(), there is a case that with 'tfp->session' still
be NULL and run 'goto cleanup', which will leads to a null dereference
by 'tfp_free(tfp->session->core_data)' in the cleanup.

Fixes: a46bbb57605b ("net/bnxt: update multi device design")
