First, install Docker on Ubuntu.

   sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade
   sudo snap install docker --stable
   sudo groupadd docker
   sudo usermod -aG docker $USER

Then, create a new docker VM.

   source create_container.sh

Inside the docker VM, download the OPAE source code(Drivers), and then build and install them.

   cd shared
   source install_opae_drv.sh

At this point, the FPGA device node can be seen in the host's sysfs, but not in the docker VM's sysfs.

   # Run the following in the host and in the docker VM, to check the driver status
   ls /dev/intel-fpga-port.0 
   ls /sys/class/fpga/intel-fpga-dev.0/intel-fpga-port.0/

Exit from the docker VM.

   exit

ReStart the docker VM, without recreating it.

   source start_container.sh

At this point, the FPGA device node can be seen in both the host and the docker VM.

   # Run the following in the host and in the docker VM, to check the driver status
   ls /dev/intel-fpga-port.0 
   ls /sys/class/fpga/intel-fpga-dev.0/intel-fpga-port.0/

Inside the docker VM, download the OPAE source code(SDK), and then build and install them.

   cd shared
   source install_opae_sdk.sh
