Bug 1330

Summary:	rte_thread_* wrappers missing in DPDK

Description David Vodák 2023-11-23 15:32:43 CET

In DPDK 23.11, rte_ctrl_thread_create has been replaced by rte_thread_create_control, encouraging Linux users to switch from the pthread_t API to the rte_thread API.

The problem is that the rte_thread API does not currently provide wrappers for all pthread functions. There are no equivalent functions for pthread_timedjoin_np, pthread_getname_np and pthread_cancel.

Would it be possible to add support for these functions as well?

Not sure about "getname", but for the rest, yes, feel free to propose new API.
