[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v4 0/3] Use WFE for spinlock and ring

[Ruifeng Wang]

The rte_wait_until_equal_xxx APIs abstract the functionality of 'polling
for a memory location to become equal to a given value'[1].

Use the API for the rte spinlock and ring implementations.
With the wait until equal APIs being stable, changes will not impact ABI.

v4:
Added meson option to expose WFE. (David, Bruce)

v3:
Series rebased. (David)

Gavin Hu (1):
  spinlock: use wfe to reduce contention on aarch64

Ruifeng Wang (2):
  ring: use wfe to wait for ring tail update on aarch64
  build: add option to enable wait until equal
