> Subject: [PATCH] app/eventdev: remove unnecessary barrier for order test
>
> For "order_launch_lcores" function, wmb after that the main lcore updates
> the variable "t->err", which represents the end of the test signal, is
> unnecessary. Because after the main lcore updates this siginal variable, it
> will
> jump out of the launch function loop, and wait other lcores stop or return
> error in the main function(evt_main.c).
> During this time, there is no storing operation and thus no need for wmb.
