patch 'net/mlx5: fix leak in sysfs port name translation' has been queued to stable release 22.11.4

[Xueming Li]

Hi,

FYI, your patch has been queued to stable release 22.11.4

Note it hasn't been pushed to http://dpdk.org/browse/dpdk-stable yet.
It will be pushed if I get no objections before 11/15/23. 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://git.dpdk.org/dpdk-stable/log/?h=22.11-staging

This queued commit can be viewed at:
https://git.dpdk.org/dpdk-stable/commit/?h=22.11-staging&id=8115fe334542f8dba41a55f20aa20e08de71d20a

Thanks.

[ upstream commit 1296e8d0d0fe74646fbb0339969cf3946f1ce84d ]

getline() may allocate a buffer even though it returns -1:
"""
If  *lineptr  is set to NULL before the call, then getline() will allocate
a buffer for storing the line.  This buffer should be freed by the user
program even if getline() failed.
"""

This leak has been observed on a RHEL8 system with two CX5 PF devices
(no VFs).

ASan reports:
==8899==ERROR: LeakSanitizer: detected memory leaks

As far as why getline() errors, strace gives a hint:
8516  openat(AT_FDCWD, "/sys/class/net/enp130s0f0/phys_port_name",
	O_RDONLY) = 34
8516  fstat(34, {st_mode=S_IFREG|0444, st_size=4096, ...}) = 0
8516  read(34, 0x621000098900, 4096)    = -1 EOPNOTSUPP (Operation
	not supported)
