+If this option is not specified, a default file is read. If you need to define
+custom types in addition to the types defined in the default file, you need to

+=item B<Coremask> I<Mask>
+
+A string containing an hexadecimal bit mask of the cores to run on. Note that
+core numbering can change between platforms and should be determined beforehand.
+
+=item B<Memorychannels> I<Channels>
+
+A string containing a number of memory channels per processor socket.
+
+=item B<ProcessType> I<type>
+
+A string containing the type of DPDK process instance.
+
+=item B<FilePrefix> I<File>
+
+The prefix text used for hugepage filenames. The filename will be set to
+/var/run/.<prefix>_config where prefix is what is passed in by the user.
+
+=item B<SocketMemory> I<MB>
+
+A string containing amount of Memory to allocate from hugepages on specific
+sockets in MB
+
+=item B<EnabledPortMask> I<Mask>
+
+A hexidecimal bit mask of the DPDK ports which should be enabled. A mask
+of 0x0 means that all ports will be disabled. A bitmask of all Fs means
+that all ports will be enabled. This is an optional argument - default
+is all ports enabled.
+
+=item B<PortName> I<Name>
+
+A string containing an optional name for the enabled DPDK ports. Each PortName
+option should contain only one port name; specify as many PortName options as
+desired. Default naming convention will be used if PortName is blank. If there
+are less PortName options than there are enabled ports, the default naming
+convention will be used for the additional ports.

+=item B<ReportPerNodeHP> B<true>|B<false>
If enabled, information will be collected from the hugepage
counters in "/sys/devices/system/node/*/hugepages".
This is used to check the per-node hugepage statistics on
a NUMA system.
-=item B<ReportRootHP> I<true>|I<false>
+=item B<ReportRootHP> B<true>|B<false>
If enabled, information will be collected from the hugepage
counters in "/sys/kernel/mm/hugepages".
This can be used on both NUMA and non-NUMA systems to check
the overall hugepage statistics.
+=item B<ValuesPages> B<true>|B<false>
+
+Whether to report hugepages metrics in number of pages.
+Defaults to B<true>.
+

+
+Whether to report hugepages metrics in bytes.
+Defaults to B<false>.

+
