Below commit introduced pthread barrier for synchronization.
But two IPC threads block on the barrier, and never wake up.
(gdb) bt
#0 futex_wait (private=0, expected=0, futex_word=0x7fffffffcff4)
at ../sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/futex-internal.h:61
#1 futex_wait_simple (private=0, expected=0, futex_word=0x7fffffffcff4)
at ../sysdeps/nptl/futex-internal.h:135
#2 __pthread_barrier_wait (barrier=0x7fffffffcff0) at pthread_barrier_wait.c:184
#3 rte_thread_init (arg=0x7fffffffcfe0)
at ../dpdk/lib/librte_eal/common/eal_common_thread.c:160
#4 start_thread (arg=0x7ffff6ecf700) at pthread_create.c:333
#5 clone () at ../sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/x86_64/clone.S:109
Through analysis, we find the barrier defined on the stack could be the
root cause. This patch will change to use heap memory as the barrier.
