Subject: [PATCH] eal: fix data race in multi-process support
Date: Fri, 17 Dec 2021 10:29:22 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20211217182922.159503-1-stephen@networkplumber.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20211217181649.154972-1-stephen@networkplumber.org>
If DPDK is built with thread sanitizer it reports a race
in setting of multiprocess file descriptor. The fix is to
use atomic operations when updating mp_fd.
Simple example:
$ dpdk-testpmd -l 1-3 --no-huge
...
EAL: Error - exiting with code: 1
Cause: Creation of mbuf pool for socket 0 failed: Cannot allocate memory
