Hi,

FYI, your patch has been queued to stable release 19.11.4

Note it hasn't been pushed to http://dpdk.org/browse/dpdk-stable yet.
It will be pushed if I get no objections before 07/26/20. 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] net/bonding: fix error code on device creation

[ upstream commit 2dd4f08540cc32cc1a62579d66d055327638ac92 ]

Because the return value of rte_vdev_init() has multiple non-zero
values, when rte_vdev_init() return non-zero in the
rte_eth_bond_create() function, it should return the actual error code
rather than -ENOMEM.

Fixes: 68451eb6698c ("net/bonding: call through EAL on create/free")
