+ Limits the maximum amount of memory that can be used from the
+ hugepage pool, on a per-socket basis.
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ The specifier is a comma-separated list of memory limits per socket.
+ <code>0</code> will disable the limit for a particular socket.
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ If not specified, OVS will configure limits equal to the amount of
+ preallocated memory specified by <ref column="other_config"
+ key="dpdk-socket-mem"/> or <code>--socket-mem</code> in
+ <ref column="other_config" key="dpdk-extra"/>. If none of the above
+ options specified or <code>--legacy-mem</code> provided in
+ <ref column="other_config" key="dpdk-extra"/>, limits will not be
+ applied.
+ Changing this value requires restarting the daemon.
