Hi Thomas,
I believe you can do:
parser.error("at least one of -s/-c/-m/-u/-r/--setup is required")
and omit sys.exit(1).
$ ~/dev/dpdk/usertools/dpdk-hugepages.py
usage: dpdk-hugepages.py [-h] [--show] [--clear] [--mount] [--unmount] [--node
NODE] [--pagesize SIZE] [--reserve SIZE] [--setup SIZE]
dpdk-hugepages.py: error: at least one of -s/-c/-m/-u/-r/--setup is required
