[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v2] eal: enable windows apps to run on non-admin users

[Pallavi Kadam <pallavi.kadam@intel.com>]

Currently, since there is no runtime directory set, the code tries to
create a file in C:\ which is only writable with administrator
privileges. As a result, if the user is not admin, the application will
fail.
So, forcing no_shconf to 1 to prevent the code having to create files in
the runtime directory.
