From 2e06c565651eaca8034c5e3e83f25f24d6b91503 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ferruh Yigit Date: Tue, 15 Jan 2019 17:28:02 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] examples/kni: fix crash while handling userspace request When KNI interface receives RTE_KNI_REQ_CFG_NETWORK_IF request, it stap/start the physical device which as a result of stop() can free all the mbufs in its queue. Meanwhile sample application continues to read from KNI interface queues and push into device queues. This simultaneous access may cause a crash, crash log can be found at defect description. As a solution KNI sample application can do the proper synchronization, and stop transfer between KNI interface and physical interface while physical device stop/started.
