RE: please help backporting some patches to stable release 23.11.6

[Shani Peretz <shperetz@nvidia.com>]

Hi there,

Apologize for the inconvenience, but my previous email didn't include stable@dpdk.org in the CC list so your replies didn't reach there. If you don't mind, please resend your reply to this email.
Thank you and sorry.

Best regards, 
Shani
