[dpdk-dev] checkpatch failing on map change

Hi,


One of our drivers is using the rte_cfgfile and meson is failing on 'rte_cfgfile_section_num_entries_by_index' which is undefined.

After a few debug cycles, I found out that this function is missing from the .map file.

So I added it and created a patch but  checkpatch is failing with



ERROR: symbol rte_cfgfile_section_num_entries_by_index is added in the DPDK_20.0 section, but is expected to be added in the EXPERIMENTAL section of the version map



Do you know what it means and how to fix it? The function is not defined as experimental so I don't understand what is the problem

Regards,
Liron
