[Kevin Traynor]

Hi,

FYI, your patch has been queued to stable release 24.11.2

Note it hasn't been pushed to http://dpdk.org/browse/dpdk-stable yet.
It will be pushed if I get no objections before 03/28/25. 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/f06641c1adfbff3e2ba12258131a5bf938885414

Thanks.

Kevin

Subject: [PATCH] doc: add no-IOMMU mode in devbind tool guide

[ upstream commit a85d7ca7d075d314c780e845fd9788ae2d532289 ]

Support for `--noiommu-mode` flag was added, but documentation for it was
not. Add documentation for the flag.

Fixes: 6ca0f1c8450d ("usertools/devbind: support VFIO non-IOMMU mode")
