[dpdk-dev] [PATCH] Use pthread_setname APIs

Ravi Kerur rkerur at gmail.com
Wed Apr 22 23:06:43 CEST 2015


use pthread_setname_np and pthread_set_name_np for Linux and
FreeBSD respectively.
Restrict pthread name len to 16 via config for both Linux and FreeBSD.

Testing:
Linux:
Compiled with both clang and gcc (x86_64-native-linuxapp-gcc and
x86_64-native-linuxapp-clang).
Compiled examples/vhost.
make test.
testpmd with I217 NIC.
Check /proc/<tid>/comm file for names.

FreeBSD:
Compiled with gcc (x86_64-native-bsdapp-gcc)
helloworld/testpmd with I218 NIC.
