Hi,

FYI, your patch has been queued to stable release 19.11.9

Note it hasn't been pushed to http://dpdk.org/browse/dpdk-stable yet.
It will be pushed if I get no objections before 05/19/21. 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/cpaelzer/dpdk-stable-queue

This queued commit can be viewed at:

Subject: [PATCH] net/tap: check ioctl on restore

[ upstream commit 8f3ca7f9a8b1df13f06236b8ab2dbed238b65ba4 ]

After restoring the remote states, the return value of ioctl() is not
checked. Therefore, users cannot know whether the remote state is
restored successfully.

This patch add log for restoring failure.

Fixes: 4810d3af8343 ("net/tap: restore state of remote device when closing")
