From: Lilijun <jerry.lili...@huawei.com>
In the function map_all_hugepages(), hugepage memory is truly allocated by
memset(virtaddr, 0, hugepage_sz). Then it costs about 40s to finish the
dpdk memory initialization when 40000 2M hugepages are setup in host os.
In fact we can only write one byte to finish the allocation.
