[Christian Ehrhardt <christian.ehrhardt@canonical.com>]

Hi,

FYI, your patch has been queued to stable release 19.11.9

Note it hasn't been pushed to http://dpdk.org/browse/dpdk-stable yet.
It will be pushed if I get no objections before 05/19/21. 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://github.com/cpaelzer/dpdk-stable-queue

This queued commit can be viewed at:
https://github.com/cpaelzer/dpdk-stable-queue/commit/4157d0d7306fbd2fdd20a2654128aff02113a528

Thanks.

Subject: [PATCH] test/distributor: fix burst flush on worker quit

[ upstream commit 6cda39af86ffc629732aac79058207cb4044e952 ]

While working on RISC-V port I have encountered a situation where worker
threads get stuck in the rte_distributor_return_pkt() function in the
burst test.
Investigation showed some of the threads enter this function with
flag RTE_DISTRIB_GET_BUF set in the d->retptr64[0]. At the same time the
main thread has already passed rte_distributor_process() so nobody will
clear this flag and hence workers can't return.

What I've noticed is that adding a flush just after the last _process(),
similarly to how quit_workers() function is written in the
test_distributor.c fixes the issue.
Lukasz Wojciechowski reproduced the same issue on x86 using a VM with 32
emulated CPU cores to force some lcores not to be woken up.

Fixes: 7c3287a10535 ("test/distributor: add performance test for burst mode")
