Hello,
We admit that the mistake was from our part.
New tests' results have revealed that from DPDK v20.05 this issue
does not exist anymore. So, this patch is applicable for DPDK
v20.02 and older.
Kind regards,
Elena Carasec

Subject: [dpdk-dev] [PATCH] i40e: fix segfault when using custom RSS
key
&out->conf and in can point to the same memory area. Reinitialization
of
out->conf leads to setting in->key to NULL, but leaves key_len 40. This
leads to segfault on destruction of the RSS flow action. The segfault
happens
inside i40e_action_rss_same(), when comparing comp->key and
with->key, because both comp->key_len and with->key_len are 40 (should
be 0).
Reproduction steps (testpmd):
port stop 0
flow create 0 ingress pattern end actions rss func default level 0\
key
6d5a6d5a6d5a6d5a6d5a6d5a6d5a6d5a6d5a6d5a6d5a6d5a6d5a6d5a6d5a6d5
a6d5a6d5a6d5a6d5a\
key_len 40 queues 0 end / end
port start 0
set link-up port 0
start
stop
set link-down port 0
port stop 0
flow destroy 0 rule 0
(Segmentation fault)
Hi,
Thanks for the fix.
But according to Chenxu and Shougang's test, this issue doesn't exist
after DPDK 20.05,
where RSS configuration has been refactored.
Could you please retry with the latest DPDK?
BR,
Beilei
