Hi, Can the vlib_time_now api be used in worker threads? Looking at the code, this api does not seam to be thread safe. But there are a few places where it is used in nodes that do packet processing. For example in nat, cdp and few other places.
Found the following thread where it is mentioned that NAT code should be rewritten. https://lists.fd.io/g/vpp-dev/topic/28792277#11683 The main thread calls this api extensively. So, if a worker thread calls it concurrently then it can result in undefined behavior. Is that right? What is the recommended api to use in nodes running on worker threads for time keeping? Thanks Vamsi
