Bug ID: 118
Summary: conflicting information for 'Running DPDK Applications
Without Root Privileges'
Product: DPDK
Version: 18.11
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: CONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: Normal
Component: doc
Assignee: dev@dpdk.org
Reporter: vipin.vargh...@intel.com
Target Milestone: ---
link 1:
http://doc.dpdk.org/guides/freebsd_gsg/build_sample_apps.html?highlight=without%20root
statement: 'with a number of small permission adjustments, it is possible to
run these applications as a user other than “root”. '
link 2:
http://doc.dpdk.org/guides/linux_gsg/enable_func.html?highlight=without%20root
statement: since version 4.0, the kernel does not allow unprivileged processes
to read the physical address information from the pagemaps file, making it
impossible for those processes to use HW devices which require physical
addresses
Can we either have 1 link for this or update both place with kernel 4.0 issue.
