The memarea library is an allocator of variable-size object which based
on a memory region. The main features are as follows:
- The memory region can be initialized from the following memory
sources:
1. HEAP: e.g. invoke rte_malloc_socket.
2. LIBC: e.g. invoke posix_memalign.
3. Another memarea: it can be from another memarea.
- It supports MT-safe as long as it's specified at creation time.
Note:
a) The memarea is oriented towards the application layer, which could
provides 'region-based memory management' [1] function.
b) The eal library also provide memory zone/heap management, but these
are tied to huge pages management.

Hi,
From my understanding, this library is not intended to support
secondary process use cases?
