Some highlights that yours truly enjoyed:
- ~minute 11 (rephrasing): "If you could only get rid of CAP_NET_ADMIN" ;->
- ~minute 13 (rephrasing): "do not share data you dont want to see
with the LLMS;->"
- ~minute 27 (rephrasing): "it's going to be a tough 18 months"
enjoy!

Dear Netdev community,
thanks to speakers, BoF leads, sponsors and attendees for such a
substantive, engaging Netdev 0x1A week in Rome. The quality
of the talks and the conversations in the hallways were the highlight
of the week for me, and I hope for you too.
A special thanks to the Local Organizing Committee (Carlo Filippi and
the teams of Roma TRE and Roma Tor Vergata universities) for the
on-site organization here in Rome.
Thanks to Jamal for the trust in bringing Netdev to Rome and for the
guidance along the way.
Thanks also to PJ, Christie and the whole Netdev team for the work
behind the scenes.
For reasons beyond my control I couldn't be with you last Thursday for
the closing session. My apologies for not being able to say goodbye
in person.
I hope you enjoyed Rome and our hospitality, and are taking home some
good memories along with the technical takeaways.
I hope to meet you all again at Netdev y, for y=0x1B to 0xFF.
ciao Stefano

Pavel Begunkov will update us on the latest and greatest in the
io_uring ZCRX universe.
To make ZCRX reliable for broader workloads, key questions must be
addressed: handling refill queue exhaustion when buffers can't be
recycled to the kernel, sharing NIC queues across multiple processes,
and detecting memory pressure before allocation failures degrade
performance.
In this talk Pavel covers latest ZCRX developments tackling these
challenges, including recent API additions and their motivations, new
features, and performance improvements. It concludes with future
directions for zero-copy receive in Linux.

High performance IPC between two local apps uses zero copy on shared
memory. There's a plethora of APIs that require a plethora of
libraries' support - and both the sender and receiver MUST use the
same IPC library to communicate. sigh.
In this talk, Davide Wei proposes adding kernel support for zero-copy
shared memory IPC (both sender and receiver) built on AF_UNIX
SOCK_SEQPACKET + io_uring, enabling any userspace library to
interoperate without sharing a common IPC library. An RFC prototype is
ready for community feedback on uAPI and design.
