Subject: [dpdk-dev] [PATCH 0/2] fix mempool when --no-huge option is set
Date: Fri, 26 Jul 2013 16:39:11 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <cover.1374849076.git.damien.millescamps@6wind.com> (raw)

This set of patch permits to use the --no-huge option to create valid mempools.
However, drivers necessitating a physically contiguous memory larger than a standard
page won't work in this mode.
Only vmxnet3-usermap will work in this mode among the available open source PMD.

This can be useful for old kernels (< 2.6.33) and VM with limited amount of mempory.
