Hi,
FYI, your patch has been queued to stable release 23.11.7
Note it hasn't been pushed to http://dpdk.org/browse/dpdk-stable yet.
It will be pushed if I get no objections before 04/05/26. 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/shanipr/dpdk-stable
This queued commit can be viewed at:
https://github.com/shanipr/dpdk-stable/commit/fe1e22c1d0b9560e281b673c5d30a62843f083d8
Thanks.
Shani

'const' qualifier from pointer target type [-Wdiscarded-qualifiers]
