[PATCH] Revert "eal/unix: fix thread creation"

[PATCH] Revert "eal/unix: fix thread creation"

[luca.boccassi]

From: Luca Boccassi <luca.boccassi@gmail.com>

This commit introduced a regression on arm64, causing a deadlock.
lcores_autotest gets stuck and never terminates:

[ 1077s] EAL: Detected CPU lcores: 4
[ 1077s] EAL: Detected NUMA nodes: 1
[ 1077s] EAL: Detected shared linkage of DPDK
[ 1077s] EAL: Multi-process socket /tmp/dpdk/rte/mp_socket
[ 1077s] EAL: Selected IOVA mode 'VA'
[ 1077s] APP: HPET is not enabled, using TSC as default timer
[ 1077s] RTE>>lcores_autotest
[ 1127s] DPDK:fast-tests / lcores_autotest time out (After 50.0 seconds)

This is 100% reproducible when running the fast tests suite
after a package build on OBS. Reverting it reliably fixes the
issue.

This reverts commit b28c6196b132d1f25cb8c1bf781520fc41556b3a.
---
I have bisected this long standing issue and identified the commit
that introduced it. If anybody can provide a different fix that would
be better, but if it's not possible to find another solution, it would
be good to revert it until it can be found, to resolve the regression.

Missing DCO (no Signed-off-by) which is required even for a Revert.

Also Luca usually uses either Debian or Microsoft email address
getting one from gmail is different and not in mailmap.

v2: add forgotten signed-off-by

I have bisected this long standing issue and identified the commit
that introduced it. If anybody can provide a different fix that would
be better, but if it's not possible to find another solution, it would
be good to revert it until it can be found, to resolve the regression.

Thanks for tracking this down.

There is one issue with reverting: iirc, it reintroduces a race / double-free.

Could you share a backtrace when hitting this deadlock?

On my side, I am not able to catch it neither on x86 nor in a ARM vm I borrowed.

I built dpdk manually in a Debian 12 container, trying to mimick OBS
cflags & friends.

If the backtrace is not possible, running with
--log-level=lib.eal:debug may help.

I cannot get backtraces. This runs via "meson test", how can that
option be passed in?
