The main features are as follows: - The default alignment size is RTE_CACHE_LINE_SIZE. - The memory region can be initialized from the following memory sources: 1. RTE memory: e.g. invoke rte_malloc_socket to obtain. 2. System API: e.g. invoke posix_memalign to obtain. 3. User provided address: it can be from extended memory as long as it is available. The address must be aligned to RTE_CACHE_LINE_SIZE. 4. User provided memarea: it can be from another memarea. - It provides refcnt feature which could be useful in multi-reader scenario. - It provides backup memory mechanism, the memarea could use another memarea as a backup. Note: a) The memarea is oriented towards the application layer, which could provides 'region-based memory management' [1] function. b) The eal library also provide memory zone/heap management, but these are tied to huge pages management.

Thanks.
