Hi All, Thanks for attending the call yesterday, here are my notes:
=== News === Linux Plumbers was last week, and included an increasing focus on BPF for tracing and other use cases over previous years. The tracing/BPF track on Friday had a very packed agenda, only allowing 10-15 minutes per talk. For full notes on the discussions, please check out the etherpad at: https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/LPC2017_Tracing Other upcoming conferences: Kernel Recipes - Sept 27-29 https://kernel-recipes.org/en/2017/ Brendan - Performance Analysis with BPF Netdev 2.2 - Nov 8-10 https://netdevconf.org/2.2/ Last day to submit a talk was yesterday, registration is still open === Developer Status === Brenden - Work started on a LLVM Debug Info traverser for BCC - Should be able to generate CTF data Martin - Investigating CTF converter for use in kernel Jesper - new map type - cpu - like netdev map - redirecting to another cpu - example: ddos on first cpu - queue non-dropped packets to other cpu - other cpu allocs skb Martin - worked on tool to iterate over bpf programs and which maps they are using - Nic suggests a similar tool from Jakub to iterate programs - https://github.com/Netronome/bpf-tool Jiong - Working on 32 bit bpf backend in llvm - (makes netronome happy) - Please let the community know when something is ready and we can help with testing :) === Attendees === Panagiotis Moustafellos Nic Viljoen Mauricio Vasquez Martin Lau Marco Leogrande Jiong Jesper Brouer Jakub Kicinski Edwin Peer Brenden Blanco Brendan Gregg Alexander Duyck Abder _______________________________________________ iovisor-dev mailing list iovisor-dev@lists.iovisor.org https://lists.iovisor.org/mailman/listinfo/iovisor-dev
