[dpdk-stable] patch 'eal: fix control threads pinnning' has been queued to LTS release 18.11.2

[Kevin Traynor]

Hi,

FYI, your patch has been queued to LTS release 18.11.2

Note it hasn't been pushed to http://dpdk.org/browse/dpdk-stable yet.
It will be pushed if I get no objections before 04/16/19. 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.

Thanks.

Kevin Traynor

Subject: [PATCH] eal: fix control threads pinnning

[ upstream commit 759b9be661222768356ee50d8d15dc4d33646432 ]

pthread_setaffinity_np returns a >0 value on error.
We could end up letting the ctrl threads on the current process cpu
affinity.

Fixes: d651ee4919cd ("eal: set affinity for control threads")
