Re: [dpdk-dev] [PATCH v2] net/ixgbe: fix blocking system events
From: Ananyev, Konstantin <hidden>

IXGBE link status task use rte alarm thread in old implementation.
Sometime ixgbe link status task takes up to 9 seconds. This will
severely affect the rte-alarm-thread-dependent a task in the
system, like interrupt or hotplug event. So replace with a
independent thread which has the same thread affinity settings
as rte interrupt.
