From 9e2167159936882a3bf9954b5f63cc37d402f4a6 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Shesha Sreenivasamurthy Date: Wed, 28 Oct 2015 15:04:25 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] eal: add option to delete hugepage backing files When an application using huge-pages crash or exists, the hugetlbfs backing files are not cleaned up. This is a patch to clean those files. There are multi-process DPDK applications that may be benefited by those backing files. Therefore, I have made that configurable so that the application that does not need those backing files can remove them, thus not changing the current default behavior. The application itself can clean it up, however the rationale behind DPDK cleaning it up is, DPDK created it and therefore, it is better it unlinks it.
