0x14: nutsnbolts, Security and Control of SR-IOV: What’s Our Responsibility if the Kernel is Bypassed?
by Jamal Hadi Salim 13 Feb '20

13 Feb '20

Network kernel bypass is becoming more common. Often the given rationale to bypass the kernel is that it takes too long to develop and enable the kernel for new features.

It is also likely that by the time we get close to the conference things will be under better control than they are right now. We would like to optimistically keep on moving forward with registration. Please register and … [View More]

In this talk, monsieur Eric Dumazet - the man sometimes refered to in passing as some form of ninja - will describe changes introduced by Google that help double TCP receiver efficiency in their datacentres.
