Subject: [PATCH v2 1/2] net/cnxk: move socket from /tmp to runtime dir
Date: Thu, 23 Jul 2026 11:10:27 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260723181153.195915-2-stephen@networkplumber.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260723181153.195915-1-stephen@networkplumber.org>
The eswitch control message socket was created at a fixed path in
/tmp, which is world-writable and shared across DPDK instances.
Build the path under the EAL runtime directory (e.g. /run/dpdk/<prefix>)
instead, so it follows the configured prefix and is isolated per
instance.
Add cnxk_eswitch_ctrl_msg_sock_addr() to fill the sockaddr_un from the
runtime dir and use it on both the server (bind) and client (connect)
paths.
Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <stephen@networkplumber.org>
