  Instead of polling for tail to be updated, use wfe instruction.

./lib/librte_ring/rte_ring_generic.h:26:3: error: implicit declaration of function 'rte_wait_until_equal_relaxed_32'; did you mean 'rte_wait_until_equal_32'? [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]

BTW, after patch #1 compilation fails also:

Hi Gavin,
	There are other sync modes added to rte_ring library. Can you please extend this to other rte_pause() calls in the library?

Thanks,
Honnappa

I looked into the other two calls to rte_cause, they can't use the rte_wait_until_equal_XX APIs simply.
Maybe new APIs are required? 
Here is the 32-bit API for your reference:
rte_wait_until_equal_32(volatile uint32_t *addr, uint32_t expected, int memorder)
