Subject: [PATCH v4 06/11] test/timer: replace volatile with C11 atomics
Date: Thu, 5 Mar 2026 09:51:00 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260305175326.279891-7-stephen@networkplumber.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260305175326.279891-1-stephen@networkplumber.org>
Replace volatile variables in test_timer_secondary shared memory
structure with RTE_ATOMIC() and rte_atomic_*_explicit() operations.
Change expected_count and expired_count from int to unsigned int
since they are non-negative counters.
Fixes: 50247fe03fe0 ("test/timer: exercise new APIs in secondary process")
Cc: stable@dpdk.org
