From: Tonghao Zhang Date: Wed, 15 Apr 2020 17:41:06 +0000 (+0800) Subject: eal: fix PRNG init with HPET enabled X-Git-Url: http://git.droids-corp.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=9b41c276fd35fe3c0ed3fb0d9cf98a83a58b31b2;p=dpdk.git eal: fix PRNG init with HPET enabled When rte_rand_init is invoked, and the kernel running dpdk does not support *getentropy, at the same time, the cpu does not support rdseed, then rte_rand_init invoked rte_get_timer_cycles. If HPET was enabled in the DPDK build (CONFIG_RTE_LIBEAL_USE_HPET=y) and the system, rte_get_timer_cycles will invoke rte_get_hpet_cycles while *eal_hpet is not available. To fix that, use rte_get_tsc_cycles instead of rte_get_timer_cycles.
