Hi

I am able to run mTCP + DPDK on my home KVM guest fine with virtio, but if i run the same mTCP + DPDK app on DO minimum ( $5/month) droplet with priviate network interface attached to DPDK virtio pmd driver, the mTCP app got killed

here is my app output:

does DO support binding private interface to DPDK virtio PMD driver?
