Hi,

FYI, your patch has been queued to stable release 19.11.1

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

Thanks.

Luca Boccassi

Subject: [PATCH] doc: fix igb_uio parameter in ntb guide

[ upstream commit 971a48e7c8b945159c012d9f0c756197282c7ae8 ]

In prerequisites of ntb guide, the correct flag when loading igb_uio
module should be `wc_activate=1`, not `wc_active=1`.

Fixes: 11b5c7daf019 ("raw/ntb: add enqueue and dequeue functions")
