[PATCH v3 5/5] eal/x86: defer power intrinsics variable allocation

David Marchand david.marchand at redhat.com
Mon Feb 10 22:31:58 CET 2025


The lcore variable in this code unit is only used through
rte_power_monitor*() public symbols.

Defer the unconditional lcore variable allocation in those symbols.
