dpdk fails to use 1G huge pages depending on the available mountpoints

Check code
opens /proc/mounts
gets pagesz_str defining what the mountpoint has
if nothing is set assume default size
if something is set in the mp's options calculate the size
check if this is the mountpoint matching
=> not working for my mountpoint

Need to be run in gdb, to check where exactly it is failing

The detection failure was a false positive.
The following would provide a sufficient mount point.

sudo mount -thugetlbfs hugetlbfs /dev/hugepages-1G -o "pagesize=1G"

It seems we have to decide if we want to hardcode a directory path for the non-default mountpoint or if we want to replicate dpdks logic to parse and detect (including size recalculations).

I have working code, but found various other combinations - like if one pages size isn't supported at all - that I have to take care of first.

ok, code is ready I wait a few days for something else to be wrapped up in one upload.
*beta release hanging over me*

This bug was fixed in the package dpdk - 2.2.0-0ubuntu6

---------------
dpdk (2.2.0-0ubuntu6) xenial; urgency=medium

  * d/dpdk-init fix handling of multiple huge page sizes (LP: #1557532):
     - dpdk-init now ensures non-default-hugepage-size mountpoints are
       available as well.
     - extra mountpoints are only created if requested in dpdk.conf and not yet
       available (e.g. by the admin).
  * d/dpdk-init fix issues with unassigned devices (LP: #1558485):
     - dpdk-init no more checks /sys/.../driver of the device unconditionally
     - removed the superfluous tr call in that path
  * d/p/ubuntu-fix-lpm-use-after-free-and-leak.patch lpm/lpm6 (LP: #1554009):
     - lpm/lpm6 fix use after free on lpm[6]_create
