I was wondering what everyone's thoughts on doing both userspace testing and unprivileged testing of dpdk applications is. DTS currently runs all commands on the tester and the dut as the root user. Please correct me if I'm wrong, but I was under the assumption that most applications written with dpdk would not run as root. This could present a problem since it is possible that permissions errors could arise and we wouldn't notice it due to the way we currently test. Given that, I was wondering what should and should not be possible as a normal (non-root) user, and what would be the best way to go about verifying this. 

Thanks
