Subject: [dpdk-users] Running DPDK as non-root
Date: Fri, 19 Aug 2016 11:16:47 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <CAGXJAmxWoJtb30Xd1CV86mYZMVU8MKuoOPxC4Uqf6uhG-z2MiQ@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

I'm trying to run a DPDK application as a normal user without root
privilege, and saw the instructions here:

http://dpdk.org/doc/guides/linux_gsg/enable_func.html

However, when I try this I get the following log messages:

EAL: Detected 8 lcore(s)
EAL: Probing VFIO support...
EAL: Cannot open /proc/self/pagemap: Operation not permitted. virt2phys
address translation will not work
PANIC in rte_eal_init():
Cannot init memory

I tried to change the permissions on /proc/self/pagemap, but that is
disallowed, even if I try it as root.

Any suggestions on how to get around this problem?

Thanks in advance for the help.
