Hi,

FYI, your patch has been queued to stable release 24.11.7

Note it hasn't been pushed to http://dpdk.org/browse/dpdk-stable yet.
It will be pushed if I get no objections before 07/05/26. 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/bluca/dpdk-stable

This queued commit can be viewed at:
https://github.com/bluca/dpdk-stable/commit/dc732637b3e300ed31f09ae89418dead763dd608

Thanks.

Luca Boccassi

Subject: [PATCH] tailq: fix name truncation

[ upstream commit 1c963e5976a812771a4f3329e340ff9f9bef4406 ]

The tailq name is defined as 32 bytes, but name would be
silently truncated at 31 bytes. The function strlcpy() size
already accounts for the NUL character at the end.

Bugzilla ID: 1954
Fixes: f9acaf84e923 ("replace snprintf with strlcpy without adding extra include")
