[dpdk-dev] ISSUE: compiling with asan+ubsan

[Aaron Conole <aconole@redhat.com>]

Hi all,

While compiling with asan and ubsan I run into the following error:

cc1: out of memory allocating 65536 bytes after a total of 4609626112
bytes

This is in a constrained (read: container) environment.  I guess one way
of resolving would be to allocate more memory to the container, but I'm
also curious why the object files are getting so large?  Should I
consider this a bug or "working as intended"?  This will have
implications if we want asan/ubsan under the travis build also.
