Subject: [dpdk-dev] [PATCH v2 8/9] doc: add deprecation notice for EAL command line options
Date: Fri, 13 Jul 2018 11:27:14 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <a8dfad87e3d755488cfa4e17781d7c565d06c61c.1531477505.git.anatoly.burakov@intel.com> (raw)

In-Reply-To: <cover.1531477505.git.anatoly.burakov@intel.com>

Options --no-shconf and --huge-unlink will be removed, and
replaced with --in-memory option, which will be a superset
of these two, and an offially support method to run DPDK
entirely in memory.
