Subject: [RFC 02/32] test: remove test for rte_smp_mb
Date: Wed, 29 Jul 2026 10:53:55 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260729175715.165120-3-stephen@networkplumber.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260729175715.165120-1-stephen@networkplumber.org>

The DPDK version of SMP barriers is deprecated and
being removed. Drop the test as no longer relevant.
