Interim virtual meetings?
by Tom Herbert 19 Jul '24

19 Jul '24

Hi, A couple of topics came up in the conference that seem like people were interested in some more discussion. Previously, we tried to set up mailing lists for that case, but those never seem to stick. I am wondering if there's interest in holding a few virtual followup meetings on specific topics. The two topics I propose for such a meeting would be "Homa hijacking TCP" and "Interplanetary Networking". If you'd be interested in attending those, or have other suggestions for a virtual meeting, let me know. Thanks, Tom

0x18: Fireside chat with Martin Casado!
by Jamal Hadi Salim 19 Jun '24

19 Jun '24

Instead of our usual keynote, for 0x18 we are honored to have Martin Casado as our guest in a fireside chat. In a previous life Martin co-founded Nicira, the originator of the kernel's openvswitch which was acquired by VMware in 2012. Based on his work at Stanford he helped create the software-defined networking (SDN) movement, leading to a new paradigm of network virtualization. As a general partner at Andreessen Horowitz Martin leads the firm’s $1.25 billion infrastructure practice. Martin is very passionate about AI/ML generally and a good part of his investment portfolio focuses on that space. For this reason, it is only natural that at the fireside chat we engage him on AI/ML with some focus on the networking industry, Linux and the role of open source in general. The subject of discussion is wide - ranging from the effects in the industry, the challenges in regulations, misconception or reality or not of displacements, opportunities, etc. We will be announcing in the near future the format of the fireside chat. See the schedule and set your calendar, and dont forget to get the popcorn on your way to the session! More details about Martin: https://netdevconf.info/0x18/sessions/keynote/keynote-casado.html cheers, jamal

0x18 talk: More talks
by Jamal Hadi Salim 15 Jun '24

15 Jun '24

Tom Herbert, Fred Templin and Rachel Dudukovich discuss interplanetary and space communications in this moonshot talk. Ping to Mars, anyone? ;-> Traditional transport protocols including TCP don't fare well in the presence of long delays, so alternative protocols are needed. The authors discuss architectural challenges in dealing with these sorts of networks aptly named as Delay-tolerant networks, or DTN. More info: https://netdevconf.info/0x18/42 Cong Wang and A K M Fazla Mehrab discuss Transparent Shared Memory Communications using eBPF in this moonshot talk. The authors note two challenges with co-resident VMs when resources are shared. First, due to high overheads of switches and events in host/guest domain and VMM. Second, very costly the communication overhead between co-resident VMs. To address this challenge the authors are proposing using BPF arena as a foundation alongside socket maps and sockops infrastructure to solve this problem. More info: https://netdevconf.info/0x18/42 Parav Pandit, Yishai Hadas, Avihai Horon, Feng Liu and Satananda Burla describe their journey to advancing device migration for virtio PCI hardware devices. Live migration of VMs with pass-through virtual functions is essential for hypervisor infrastructure. In this talk the authors detail the evolution of the various design aspects of the spec, implementation challenges, their solutions, comparisons against vendor-specific approaches and IDPF. They finally share the lessons learnt in the journet and share present performance benchmarks. More info: https://netdevconf.info/0x18/22 cheers, jamal

0x18 talks: AI/ML
by Jamal Hadi Salim 14 Jun '24

14 Jun '24

Jasmine Mou and Krz Sywula give a moonshot talk on using Machine Learning Optimization Algorithms in HTTP Latency Tuning on Nginx. Jasmine and Krz discuss techniques for dealing with the massive number of tunables to identify the best parameter combinations for different workloads, and streamline the process to minimize human intervention. They focus on optimizing HTTP latency for an Nginx server. In this talk they discuss their methodology and share their experimental results. More info: https://netdevconf.info/0x18/27 Jesse Brandeburg and Kamel Ayari present work on enhancing netdev reviews using AI. I have to admit my bias: This is my favorite submission! You dont need to read between the lines and guess the reviewers bias, it's a machine giving you feedback! Does this mean we are going to get rid of all those pesky reviewers? Come and find out ;-> More info: https://netdevconf.info/0x18/26 Jasmine Mou will give a talk on Machine Learning Practices in Network Traffic across Data Centers. With massive growth of network infrastructure it is getting overwhelming for network engineers in network traffic management and capacity planning. Jasmine will share ByteDance practices of how machine learning, statistical profiling, and visualization techniques are applied with network traffic data to address these challenges. More info: https://netdevconf.info/0x18/16 Anjali Singhai, Shaopeng He and Sridhar Samudrala will give a talk on Advancing TCP with Device Memory[1] and Collective Communication(CC). Anjali, Shaopeng and Sridhar build up on devmem work on the Intel IPU NICs to enable efficient CC across clusters. The authors will present detailed performance data to demonstrate the enhanced TCP’s effectiveness, showcasing its comparability to RDMA and its superiority over standard TCP, particularly in handling larger packet sizes.
