Thank you Anatoly and keith for your replies. What i still don't get is why the two cannot seem to co-exist? That is , whenever this while loop was running in the EAL thread that i showed in the code, my driver would stop receiving interrupts/async events ...Do we understand that? But you are right Anatoly, i need something to be called in my driver at a cadence of ~2s, I was registering timers in my driver and running rte_timer_manage() in this seperate thread to check and ensure the callbacks are executed on expiry. so if you are saying, i can achieve same functionality using rte_alarm() while i can get async events in my driver at the same time, i will explore this option Thanks a lot
