When compiled with EXTRA_CFLAGS="-O1", the compiler is not able to detect that size is always initialized when used, and issues a wrong warning:
eal_memory.c: In function ?rte_eal_hugepage_attach?: eal_memory.c:1684:3: error: ?size? may be used uninitialized in this function [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized] munmap(hp, size); ^ Workaround this issue by initializing size to 0. Seen on gcc (Debian 5.4.1-1) 5.4.1 20160803.
