As I'm sure you are aware, polling one more time would not change the likelihood that additional packets arrive and disarm the interrupt before the thread suspends. A packet could still arrive between that polling round and the call to rte_epoll_wait(). Is there really no way to atomically arm the interrupt and suspend, guaranteeing that my thread will never suspend if packets have arrived prior to suspending?
