[dpdk-stable] patch 'eal/linux: fix uninitialized data valgrind warning' has been queued to LTS release 18.11.7

[Kevin Traynor]

Hi,

FYI, your patch has been queued to LTS release 18.11.7

Note it hasn't been pushed to http://dpdk.org/browse/dpdk-stable yet.
It will be pushed if I get no objections before 02/13/20. 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-queue

This queued commit can be viewed at:
https://github.com/kevintraynor/dpdk-stable-queue/commit/5febee7b601ecb874a06f2460afc7725264ce967

Thanks.

Kevin.

Subject: [PATCH] eal/linux: fix uninitialized data valgrind warning

[ upstream commit e0ab8020ac2a5b379bb91fbe882ac3b08d333586 ]

Valgrind reports that eal interrupt thread is calling epoll_ctl
with uninitialized data.
This is a false positive, because the kernel is not going to care about
the unused bits in the union but trivial to fix by initializing it.

Fixes: af75078fece3 ("first public release")
