           Summary: mlx5: socket path uses /tmp
           Product: DPDK
           Version: 25.07
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: minor
          Priority: Normal
         Component: ethdev
          Assignee: dev@dpdk.org
          Reporter: stephen@networkplumber.org
  Target Milestone: ---

The MLX5 socket path used to communicate with tools is:
  /var/tmp/dpdk_net_mlx5_%d

According to current best practices is should be:
  /run/dpdk/mlx5/%d
