Hi Yuanhan, thanks - I see them now.

I ran git-log-fixes and it gave a list of 253 post v18.02 fixes in head
of master (not including typo/base drv fixes) that look relevant for
17.11, with another 20 unclear as they are missing 'Fixes:' tag. On the
17.11 branch there's 99 fixes from v17.11.1..HEAD.
There might a few discrepancies in accounting due to different
18.02.0/17.11.1 release dates etc, but at that number it seems like
there are fixes missing - unless they are not suitable for backport for
some other criteria?
I made a list of all fixes that look relevant on master and 17.11
branches, it's quite long, I will send separately.
One unusual case that is needed is a fix for a fix that is not on master
but is on stable branches. The fix is here:
http://dpdk.org/browse/dpdk-stable/commit/?h=18.02&id=e89e323e4ce58f2cbbc7afcc2d5dc7ce66075e81
thanks,
Kevin.
