Hi,
I've submitted a patch on 17th March, 2022. One of the tests is failing
and it is not related to the patch.
Following test is failing:

Can you please rerun the tests so that the patch can be submitted.
Regards,

By default, the EAL creates hugepage files on each hugetlbfs filesystem using the rtemap_X filename,
where X is in the range 0 to the maximum number of hugepages -1.
-Similarly, it creates shared configuration files, memory mapped in each process, using the /var/run/.rte_config filename,

The rte part of the filenames of each of the above is configurable using the file-prefix parameter.
