Does this mean that the lsc event will be processed in a dataplane thread? Looking at the _rte_eth_dev_callback_process() call, it seems so. Shouldn't this be executed in the context of the eal-intr-thread instead? This thread is marked control and should be configured with the proper afinity, unless dataplane threads. Maybe I missed something, it's just to double-check that this will behave nicely with applications relying on the eal-intr-thread afinity. -- Gaëtan Rivet 6WIND
