From 36349293f4553e87c9ae17960f177c59843ae884 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Christian Ehrhardt Date: Mon, 12 Sep 2016 12:27:45 +0200 Subject: runtime: add 16M hugepages to config and init ppc64el has 16M huge pages so they are added to the config and init scripts. Along that it became obvious that the comment in the conf should be tweaked at least a bit to be more readable.
