Configure 2M huge pages (setup_permissions.sh) only configures 1024 2M hugepages

[umairsiddiqui-digitek]

the script setup_permissions.sh has a function set_hugepages . This function currently configures only 1024 2M hugepages

################################################################################
# Configure 2M huge pages
#
# Hugepages are used to improve performance of the DMA operations between host
# and FPGA.  The OFS oneAPI-ASP requires a minimum of 4 2M hugepages per FPGA.
# However, there is additional optimization that allows user to pre-pin memory
# using hugepages.  The default setting in this script configures 2048 2M
# hugepages.  This means 4G of host memory is allocated for hugepages.
# This can be changed by configuring OFS_ASP_ENV_NUM_HUGEPAGES before running
# this script.

set_hugepages()
{
  NUM_HUGE_PAGES=${OFS_ASP_ENV_NUM_HUGEPAGES:-1024}

so this line should be

  NUM_HUGE_PAGES=${OFS_ASP_ENV_NUM_HUGEPAGES:-2048}
