Dpdk seems to have rte ring but it only exists on the Ethernet, while I am talking about the process within the same computer, and the way like share-memory, but I didn't find examples about the share memory between processes.

Thats not really a dpdk question, that a generic programming question.  You can
do this lots of ways.  Open a socket that other process can connect to on an
agreed port, create a shared memory segment, write a file with connect
information to a well know location, etc.
