Hi,

FYI, your patch has been queued to stable release 18.08.1

Note it hasn't been pushed to http://dpdk.org/browse/dpdk-stable yet.
It will be pushed if I get no objections before 11/29/18. 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. If the code is different (ie: not only metadata diffs), due for example to
a change in context or macro names, please double check it.

Thanks.

Kevin Traynor

Subject: [PATCH] pci: fix parsing of address without function number

[ upstream commit 31f19a9beb8d88b67be6e469404081eb834d199c ]

If the last part of the PCI address (function number) is missing,
the parsing was successful, assuming function 0.
The call to strtoul is not returning an error in such a case,
so an explicit check is inserted before.

This bug has always been there in older parsing macros:
	- GET_PCIADDR_FIELD
	- GET_BLACKLIST_FIELD

Fixes: af75078fece3 ("first public release")
