patch 'examples/ipsec-secgw: fix uninitialized memory access' has been queued to stable release 21.11.2

[Kevin Traynor]

Hi,

FYI, your patch has been queued to stable release 21.11.2

Note it hasn't been pushed to http://dpdk.org/browse/dpdk-stable yet.
It will be pushed if I get no objections before 06/13/22. 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/51952c8f0ca75186b972dcef5e2627221157180d

Thanks.

Kevin

Subject: [PATCH] examples/ipsec-secgw: fix uninitialized memory access

[ upstream commit 0b512a92b77009ab6e4291382b18f0e0ac74645f ]

rte_flow_validate and rte_flow_create not always initialize flow error.
Using error.message in some error cases will cause read from
uninitialized memory.

Fixes: 6738c0a9569 ("examples/ipsec-secgw: support flow director")
