Hi Xueming,

The patch "8c047e823a  Kishore Padmanabha net/bnxt: fix multi-root card
support" is not required for 22.11 release. This need not be backported to
older branch.

Thanks,
Kishore

Subject: please help backporting some patches to stable release 22.11.3

Hi commit authors (and maintainers),

Despite being selected by the DPDK maintenance tool
./devtools/git-log-fixes.sh I didn't apply following commits from DPDK
main to 22.11 stable branch, as conflicts or build errors occur.

Can authors check your patches in the following list and either:
    - Backport your patches to the 22.11 branch, or
    - Indicate that the patch should not be backported

Please do either of the above by 08/16/23.

You can find the a temporary work-in-progress branch of the coming 22.11.3
release at:
    https://git.dpdk.org/dpdk-stable/log/?h=22.11-staging
It is recommended to backport on top of that to minimize further conflicts
or misunderstandings.

Some notes on stable backports:

A backport should contain a reference to the DPDK main branch commit in
it's commit message in the following fashion:
    [ upstream commit <commit's dpdk main branch SHA-1 checksum> ]

For example:

https://git.dpdk.org/dpdk-stable/commit/?h=18.11&id=d90e6ae6f936ecdc2fd381
1ff9f26aec7f3c06eb

When sending the backported patch, please indicate the target branch in
the subject line, as we have multiple branches, for example:
    [PATCH 22.11] foo/bar: fix baz

With git format-patch, this can be achieved by appending the parameter:
    --subject-prefix='PATCH 22.11'

Send the backported patch to "stable@dpdk.org" but not "dev@dpdk.org".

FYI, branch 22.11 is located at tree:
   https://git.dpdk.org/dpdk-stable

Thanks.
