When we want to close a thread, we should set a flag to notify
thread handler function.

Better, but rte_atomic is deprecated in favor of using __atomic builtin
instead. This is because there are more options possible with 
__atomic_load_n than rte_atomic32_read.  rte_atomic32_read has to assume
worst case memory ordering, and your example relaxed memory ordering is
what you need.
