Hi,

FYI, your patch has been queued to LTS release 18.11.1

Note it hasn't been pushed to http://dpdk.org/browse/dpdk-stable yet.
It will be pushed if I get no objections before 01/11/19. 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] log: add missing experimental tag

[ upstream commit a8499f65a1d116ffb25db48abbe3bbaefa7cf120 ]

When rte_log_register_type_and_pick_level() has been introduced, it has
been correctly added to the EXPERIMENTAL section of the eal map and the
symbol itself has been marked at its definition.

However, the declaration of this symbol in rte_log.h is missing the
__rte_experimental tag.
Because of this, a user can try to call this symbol without being aware
this is an experimental api (neither compilation nor link warning).

Fixes: b22e77c02620 ("eal: register log type and pick level from args")
