Hi,

FYI, your patch has been queued to stable release 20.11.9

Note it hasn't been pushed to http://dpdk.org/browse/dpdk-stable yet.
It will be pushed if I get no objections before 07/16/23. 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/bluca/dpdk-stable

This queued commit can be viewed at:
https://github.com/bluca/dpdk-stable/commit/b4075bea115a3e51d326439e91bca3b6ccf0483e

Thanks.

Luca Boccassi

Subject: [PATCH] kni: fix build with Linux 6.5

[ upstream commit dd33d53b9a032d7376aa04a28a1235338e1fd78f ]

The get_user_pages_remote() API has been modified in Linux kernel v6.5
[1], "struct vm_area_struct **vmas" parameter removed from the API.

To fix KNI build with Linux kernel v6.5, version check added around the
get_user_pages_remote() API.
