> FreeBSD does not support running multiple primary processes concurrently, because all DPDK instances will allocate memory from the same place (memory provided by contigmem driver).
> While it is technically possible to launch a DPDK process using no-shconf switch, it will actually corrupt main process'
> for the above reason.
> 
> Fix EAL flags autotest to not run primary processes unless both no-shconf and no-huge are specified.
