[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v3 1/2] lib/distributor: fix deadlock issue for aarch64

Tue Oct 15 11:28:25 CEST 2019
Distributor and worker threads rely on data structs in cache line
for synchronization. The shared data structs were not protected.
This caused deadlock issue on weaker memory ordering platforms as
aarch64.
Fix this issue by adding memory barriers to ensure synchronization
among cores.
Bugzilla ID: 342
Fixes: 775003ad2f96 ("distributor: add new burst-capable library")
