patch 'pdump: fix error number on IPC response' has been queued to stable release 21.11.6

[Kevin Traynor]

Hi,

FYI, your patch has been queued to stable release 21.11.6

Note it hasn't been pushed to http://dpdk.org/browse/dpdk-stable yet.
It will be pushed if I get no objections before 12/12/23. 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/c9a8aa95deb8b31cf7744828dd4778840b83a615

Thanks.

Kevin

Subject: [PATCH] pdump: fix error number on IPC response
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

[ upstream commit 5ec9575d8c0abfcefbc353d540f228d6d7036fe6 ]

The response from MP server sets err_value to negative
on error. The convention for rte_errno is to use a positive
value on error. This makes errors like duplicate registration
show up with the correct error value.

Fixes: 660098d61f57 ("pdump: use generic multi-process channel")
