            Bug ID: 808
           Summary: Unexpected error log 'EAL: Cannot find action:
                    mp_malloc_response'
           Product: DPDK
           Version: 20.11
          Hardware: x86
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Normal
         Component: core
          Assignee: dev at dpdk.org
          Reporter: li_hong.bi at nokia-sbell.com
  Target Milestone: ---

Our test env has two CPU sockets (2 NUMA nodes), and we hope that dpdk can
automatically identify CPU sockets and allocate hugepage memory according to
runtime requirement of application without manual designation, therefore we set
"--socket-mem 0,0 --socket-limit 0,0" into dpdk initialization parameter list.

We do a recovery test case as below for our dpdk application in k8s container:
Test Step:
1. run 'kill -9' to terminate a dpdk primary process
2. restart dpdk primary process 
3. run a dpdk secondary process after dpdk primary process restarted
successfully.
Repeat the upper 1-3 test steps for 3 rounds

Expected result:
- no error log was found.
Test result:
- An error log "EAL: Cannot find action: mp_malloc_response" was printed out by
dpdk secondary process after the 3th round test. （The error was NOT found in
the first two rounds test)

Could you help to check this issue ?
Note：
We don't know whether "- socket MEM 0,0 -- socket limit 0,0" is correct.
If not, could you give some suggestions?
