Subject: [dpdk-users] Calling timers from a library
Date: Thu, 9 Apr 2020 11:37:12 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <CANtWViNTb+s7i8+Sb4ckfjTwiV8MEY+dagoK4UBVwFZKBYfj-w@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

Hello DPDK users,

I'm building a library for DPDK which utilizes periodically called
functions using the dpdk timer facility. Currently, I'm using the master
core on an application to call timer_manage() and run the scheduled timers.

My doubt is whether its possible to call timer_manage() from inside the
library to run the scheduled timers. This would allow for a much more
streamlined design. An issue which comes to mind is that my library is not
aware of the cores it is being run on, hence I cannot use
rte_eal_remote_launch() for a function that calls rte_timer_manage().

Any help on how I can do this would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks and regards,
