Hi,

The hash creation API throws the following error --
RING: Cannot reserve memory for tailq
HASH: memory allocation failed

The timer subsystem init api throws this error --
EAL: memzone_reserve_aligned_thread_unsafe(): Number of requested
memzone segments exceeds RTE_MAX_MEMZONE

I did check the code and apparently the memzone and rte zmalloc
related api's are not being able to allocate memory.

Regards
-Prashant
