Hi there,
I think the DPDK uses the pthread_ functions to manages its threads. You
can see in `rte_eal_init` in `lib/librte_eal/linux/eal.c` that it "spawns"
the threads using
```
/* create a thread for each lcore */
ret = pthread_create(&lcore_config[i].thread_id, NULL,
eal_thread_loop, NULL);
```
So I think you should be able to use other pthread_ functions without
problems from inside the EAL threads.
Hope that helps.
Regards,
Pavel.
