    "content": "This patch adds a new function to the EAL API:\nint rte_eal_primary_proc_alive(const char *path);\n\nThe function indicates if a primary process is alive right now.\nThis functionality is implemented by testing for a write-\nlock on the config file, and the function tests for a lock.\n\nThe use case for this functionality is that a secondary\nprocess can wait until a primary process starts by polling\nthe function and waiting. When the primary is running, the\nsecondary continues to poll to detect if the primary process\nhas quit unexpectedly, the secondary process can detect this.\n\nThe RTE_MAGIC number is written to the shared config by the\nprimary process, this is the signal to the secondary process\nthat the EAL is set up, and ready to be used. The function\nrte_eal_mcfg_complete() writes RTE_MAGIC. This has been\ndelayed in the EAL init proceedure, as the PCI probing in\nthe primary process can interfere with the secondary running.\n\nSigned-off-by: Harry van Haaren <harry.van.haaren@intel.com>\n---\n\nv2:\n- Passing NULL as const char* uses default /var/run/.rte_config\n- Moved code into /common/ instead of /linuxapp/, should work on BSD now\n\n doc/guides/rel_notes/release_2_3.rst            |  7 +++\n lib/librte_eal/bsdapp/eal/Makefile              |  1 +\n lib/librte_eal/bsdapp/eal/rte_eal_version.map   |  8 ++++\n lib/librte_eal/common/eal_common_proc.c         | 61 +++++++++++++++++++++++++\n lib/librte_eal/common/include/rte_eal.h         | 18 ++++++++\n lib/librte_eal/linuxapp/eal/Makefile            |  1 +\n lib/librte_eal/linuxapp/eal/eal.c               |  4 +-\n lib/librte_eal/linuxapp/eal/rte_eal_version.map |  7 +++\n 8 files changed, 105 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-)\n create mode 100644 lib/librte_eal/common/eal_common_proc.c",
