Hi Gautam
this is not related to hugepages (actually hugepages reserve physical memory, 
thus
they can affect allocation, however in this specific case it was due to a limit 
in the
pf_ring buffer size).
Please note I just pushed a patch to handle this case resizing the buffer size 
when
limit is exceeded, please check if it’s working for you and let me know.

Regards
Alfredo
