I am new to DPDK... I'd like to know if it is possible to use DPDK without the 
acceleration of hugepages, specifically rings, mbuf and hashmap, but not using 
accelerated networking.

I realize it will not be as performant, but is it possible? In case someone 
would want to know why would I want to do that is - we have already developed 
code that uses DPDK, were we control the OS, kernel, packaging etc. There is a 
portion of that we'd like to use in environment where we do not and cannot 
control kernel/os and thus would not be able to configure hugepages. For 
obvious reasons, we don't want to rewrite the code and use a different 
libraries.

I've noticed the docs has an option for no-huge but it is also claimed 
unsupported. So before we resort to desperate measures, I'm hoping it is 
possible.

Appreciate any help/advise.
