Hi,

starting from last night I cannot run the second DPDK app on the host.
I definitely have problems on Ubuntu 16.04.4 (Linux 4.4.0-124-generic) and
RHEL 7.5 (Linux 3.10.0-862.el7.x86_64).
EAL command line option --file-prefix is used. So, it worked perfectly 
before.
Not it fails in the following way:

EAL: Detected 10 lcore(s)
EAL: Detected 1 NUMA nodes
EAL: Multi-process socket /var/run/dpdk/rte/mp_socket
EAL: Probing VFIO support...
EAL: VFIO support initialized
EAL: Cannot allocate memzone list
EAL: Cannot init memzone

Memzone list allocation fails on flock() with errno "Resource 
temporarily unavailable".

Is it know? Any fixes available?

Andrew.
