[dpdk-dev] testpmd errors

[Peter Chen]

Hi, it seems the above error is due to the fact I don't have NUMA enabled
even though half of my cores use socket 0 and half of my cores use socket
1. For some reason all the hugepage allocations are on socket 0 (it makes
sense as I don't have NUMA enabled). Also I am unable to use:

   sudo ./testpmd -c ff -n 4 -r 2 --socket-mem=1024,1024 command to
allocate memory to socket 1 as it is not part of dpdk usage which is weird
(do I have to have NUMA enabled to use this feature?)

I have two Intel quad-core Xeon 5506. I am not sure how to enable NUMA on
them or if these Intel chips even support them. Does anyone know?

Peter
