See this config template:
	http://dpdk.org/browse/dpdk/tree/config/defconfig_i686-native-linuxapp-gcc#n45
"KNI is not supported on 32-bit"

You should not see this error. See the makefile:
	http://dpdk.org/browse/dpdk/tree/lib/librte_port/Makefile#n59
ifeq ($(CONFIG_RTE_LIBRTE_KNI),y)
SRCS-$(CONFIG_RTE_LIBRTE_PORT) += rte_port_kni.c
endif

And CONFIG_RTE_LIBRTE_KNI must be disabled for 32-bit.
