Hi,all,


I am developing a program now. My program have two kinds of processes. Process A and process B.
Process A receives packets from nic and then forward packets to process B. While process B will do some user-mode TCP/IP stack work.


So here the problem is,
For hugepages between A and nic, A is primary.
For hugepages between A and B, I hope that B could be primary and A could be secondary.
Because there may be many process Bs in some situations.Also I want to make Memory Operations restricted with B only. Memory malloc and free operate in B only. Process A just attach shared memory and use.


So does dpdk support a process start as primary & secondary both? OR is this on a roadmap?


Any help will be greatly appreciated.
