[dpdk-stable] [RFC PATCH v1 4/5] lib/bpf: use wait until scheme for Rx/Tx iteration

[dpdk-stable] [RFC PATCH v1 4/5] lib/bpf: use wait until scheme for Rx/Tx iteration

[Feifei Wang]

First, fix the bug that keyword const of func arg should be after "*".
This is because const before "*" means the value of "cbi" should not be
changed. But we should monitor that cbi->use changed and then we can
jump out of loop.

Second, instead of polling for cbi->use to be updated, use
wait_until_unequal api.

I believe there is no bug here.

Exactly, it says that the function itself will not change the value of "cbi".
It just waits for the value to be changed by someone else.
So please keep parameter list intact.

Thanks for your explanation. The reason I changed is that I ever used rte_wait_until_xx(validate *addr) API here,
And there is conflict between "const" and "validate", complier will report warning here.
But now I think since I keep it as it is, there will be no warning due to new macro has no "validate".
I will delete this unnecessary bug fix.
