doubts on dpdk qos-sched sample application

[Mahesh Ishwar Mathad]

Hi Team, 

$ ./build/qos_sched -c 0xe -n 4 -- --pfc "0,1,3,2" --cfg "profile.cfg"EAL: 
Detected 4 lcore(s) 
PMD: bnxt_rte_pmd_init() called for (null) 
EAL: PCI device 0000:01:00.0 on NUMA socket -1 
EAL: probe driver: 8086:10c9 rte_igb_pmd 
EAL: PCI device 0000:01:00.1 on NUMA socket -1 
EAL: probe driver: 8086:10c9 rte_igb_pmd 
EAL: Error - exiting with code: 1 
Cause: Cannot init mbuf pool for socket 0 

I getting error something like this: Cannot init mbuf pool for socket 0. 

$ grep -i Huge /proc/meminfo

HugePages_Free: 476

Is 476 hugepages are sufficient to execute qos_sched application? 

Could you help me in running this app as per my system configuration.

Probably not enough, as traffic management requires large buffer pools.

By default, this app builds a mempool of 2M buffers for each output port:

#define NB_MBUF   (2*1024*1024)
