+The last EAL argument is replaced by the program name in argv[]
+---------------------------------------------------------------
+
+**Description**:
+ The last EAL argument is replaced by program name in ``argv[]`` after ``eal_parse_args`` is called.
+ This is the intended behavior but it causes the pointer to the last EAL argument to be lost.
+
+**Implication**:
+ If the last EAL argument in ``argv[]`` is generated by a malloc function, changing it will cause memory
+ issues when freeing the argument.
+
+**Resolution/Workaround**:
+ An application should not consider the value in ``argv[]`` as unchanged.

+**Affected Environment/Platform**:
+ ALL.
