Can the DPDK multi-process feature be used in Docker containers?

[Staffan Wiklund]

Hello

I wonder if it is possible to use the DPDK multi-process feature in Docker
containers?

That is, can a DPDK application execute in a Docker container and share its
DPDK memory with another DPDK application executing in another Docker
container
using the DPDK multi-process feature?

For example if the DPDK example mp_server executes in one Docker container:
<build_dir>/examples/dpdk-mp_server -l 1-2 -n 4 -- -p 3 -n 2

and the DPDK example mp_client executes in another Docker container:

<build_dir>/examples/dpdk-mp_client -l 3 -n 4 --proc-type=auto -- -n 0

Is this possible to implement?

Thanks
Staffan
