> 
> Remove rte_ctrl_thread_create API which exposes pthread_t and provide
> new rte_control_thread_create API based on EALs rte_thread_t.
> 
> To limit compatibility regression risk and ease of removal of the
> existing rte_ctrl_thread_create in the future duplicate most of the
> existing implementation. The duplication will be removed when
> rte_ctrl_thread_create is finally duplicated/removed.
> 
> The unit test for rte_ctrl_thread_create has been duplicated to
> exercise
> both the old and the new API during transition, as with the API the
> duplicate test will be removed when the rte_ctrl_thread_create API is
> removed.
> 
> Tyler Retzlaff (3):
>   eal: add rte control thread create API
>   test: add rte control thread create API test
>   eal: deprecate pthread control thread create API
