Hi,

I was trying to run dpdk timer app by setting 512 2MB hugepages but the
application crashed with following error
EAL: Detected 4 lcore(s)
EAL: Probing VFIO support...
Bus error (core dumped)

If I reduce the number of hugepages to 256 it works fine. I wondering what
could be the problem here. Here's my cpu info
