Subject: [PATCH 8/9] doc: add deprecation notice for EAL command line options
Date: Fri,  1 Jun 2018 18:15:17 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1de1ed4dffadaef9c7ae70303f930f72da18deb1.1527872626.git.anatoly.burakov@intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1527872626.git.anatoly.burakov@intel.com>
In-Reply-To: <cover.1527872626.git.anatoly.burakov@intel.com>

Options --no-shconf and --huge-unlink will be removed, and
replaced with --in-memory option, which will be a superset
of these two, and an offially support method to run DPDK
entirely in memory.
