[dpdk-dev] ivshmem mmap to specific address

[Eli Britstein <eli.britstein@toganetworks.com>]

Hello,



In librte_eal, in eal_ivshmem.c, in function map_all_segments, there is mapping of segments from the metadata to the same virtual address as written in the metadata.

Is there a method to guarantee that this mapping won't fail, even for different processes, that might have large code or constructors running even before main?



Thanks,

Eli
