Normally, most commits in the stable tree are backported
from the commits in the mainline tree which contains below
Cc line:
Cc: stable@dpdk.org
This patch also contains such line. So after this patch
is applied to the mainline tree, it will be backported.
If you need the fix right now, you can download the latest
patch (which has been applied to dpdk-next-virtio tree)
from here:
https://dpdk.org/dev/patchwork/patch/32061/
It can be applied to DPDK 16.11.4 with the patch command.
After the patching, one small change is needed to get it
work:
Besides, I'm not sure whether you are aware of this or not.
But just FYI, when you want to use the vector Rx of virtio
PMD, you need to be aware of the fact that the current
implementation of vector Rx doesn't really follow the virtio
spec. You can find more details in below link:
