Hi All,

My requirement is to have a Heap Manager for a contiguous memory. Is there any library in DPDK that I can leverage, where I specify the start and end address of the heap, using mmap. After this can this be managed by dock memory API’s.

Thanking You,
Param.

mempool system uses hugepages and attempts to allocate contiguous memory. If you are using 2M or 1G huge pages.

BTW, you can give mempool the memory to manage, but verify it first :-) At one time that was the case.
