Commit Message

Timothy Redaelli April 16, 2018, 3:15 p.m. UTC
Currently (at least on RHEL 7.5) openvswitch fails to start (with DPDK
enabled) as non-root, since chown fails and "/dev/hugepages" group is not
changed.

Commit tested on Fedora 28 and RHEL 7.5, both as root as non-root user.

From man 5 systemd.service:

  To pass a literal dollar sign, use "$$". Variables whose value is not known
  at expansion time are treated as empty strings. Note that the first argument
  (i.e. the program to execute) may not be a variable.

Fixes: 4299145c1095 ("rhel: don't drop capabilities when running as root")
