Subject: [dpdk-dev] [RFC 2/2] nfp: allow for non-root user
Date: Thu, 12 Apr 2018 18:22:08 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180412222208.11770-3-aconole@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20180412222208.11770-1-aconole@redhat.com>

Currently, the nfp lock files are taken from the global lock file
location, which will work when the user is running as root.  However,
some distributions and applications (notably ovs 2.8+ on RHEL/Fedora)
run as a non-root user.
