Subject: [dpdk-dev] [PATCH] eal/service: fix exit by resetting service lcores
Date: Tue, 10 Mar 2020 13:33:04 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200310133304.39951-1-harry.van.haaren@intel.com> (raw)

This commit releases all service cores from thier role,
returning them to ROLE_RTE on rte_service_finalize().

This may fix an issue relating to the service cores causing
a race-condition on eal_cleanup(), where the service core
could still be executing while the main thread has already
free-d the service memory, leading to a segfault.

Fixes: 21698354c832 ("service: introduce service cores concept")

Please note that this patch is being sent to community for
testing as I cannot reliably reproduce the reported issue on
my local setup (despite code-changes in attempts to make the
problem more visible, and instructions from David on how he
can reproduce it). Email discusson on this topic here:
