DPDK and 802.11 - Robert McMahon, Umber Networks
Tuesday May 12, 2026 09:25 - 10:10 CEST
Rum 17+18 - Floor 3
DPDK transformed wired networking by giving host software direct control over packet processing. This talk makes the case that the same approach should be applied to 802.11 wireless. Wi-Fi’s real behavior—contention, TXOP scheduling, A-MPDU aggregation, rate adaptation, and retries—is hidden below the 802.3 interface inside firmware and hardware state machines. This prevents per-packet...

Bridging DPDK and NIC HQoS With Priority-Aware Backpressure - Rubens Figueiredo, BISDN GmbH
Tuesday May 12, 2026 10:55 - 11:25 CEST
Rum 17+18 - Floor 3
Hierarchical QoS (HQoS) in DPDK enables fine-grained shaping across tens of thousands of flows, but scaling beyond a single core remains challenging. While rte_sched offers flexible software HQoS, synchronization and cache overheads constrain multi-core performance. Modern NICs such as the Intel E810 offer line-rate hardware HQoS, but only at coarse granularity, lacking per-flow control. Partial...

DPDK-based routing stacks often integrate with Linux by using the kernel as the primary routing and control point, with routing state mirrored into a userspace dataplane. While effective, this model couples the dataplane closely to kernel routing semantics. This talk explores an alternative architectural approach: treating the DPDK dataplane itself as the routing data plane. Grout is designed to...

Data-path accelerator (DPA) is an NVIDIA BlueField-3 subsystem that consists of a large number of RISC-V cores integrated with the NIC fabric. DPA cannot comprehensively host DPDK, because DPA is running an RTOS without any conventional services except scheduling. Besides, DPDK core abstractions are suboptimal for DPA or have limited use there. On the other hand, it is desired to run advanced and...
