The first thing DPDK initializes > is a log mempool, and since it creates a tailq, it reserves > space in rte_malloc heap before allocating the mempool itself. > By default, rte_malloc allocates way more space than is necessary, > so under some conditions (namely, overall memory available is low) > this results in malloc heap eating up so much memory that log > mempool is not able to allocate its memzone. > > This patch fixes the unit tests to account for that change. > > Signed-off-by: Anatoly Burakov <anatoly.burakov at intel.com> > ---
