0x12: Reminder to register
by Jamal Hadi Salim 27 Jun '18

27 Jun '18

Folks, The conference is about two weeks away. If you have been procrastinating - now is the time to register. As you can see we have amazing talks, working sessions and tutorials. We have a legend giving a keynote. Thanks to the Program Committee. Check: https://www.netdevconf.org/0x12/schedule.html We wish we didnt have the parallel tracks on day 1 because if you are like me, I am sure you will want to attend all the sessions. Perhaps we should not have reopened the CFS. Alas. Lessons learnt. The "Bits, Nibbles, Bytes and Words" event is expected to be a great human-networking event amongst geeks: whether you want to chit-chat with like minded people in a social environment, see what our sponsors are up to or just looking for job opportunities, come and mingle in a comfortable environment. Apart from the talks - Montreal is amazing. We are going to continue updating you with what you could do in Montreal but for starters do look at: https://www.netdevconf.org/0x12/montreal.html To the locals in Montreal: If we are missing anything you think is exciting to see - ping us at info(a)netdevconf.org We are also in the process of setting up a wiki where we will add a lot more info.. Before i forget, to register goto: https://www.netdevconf.org/0x12/registration.html cheers, jamal

0x12: Looking for a few heroes
by Jamal Hadi Salim 22 Jun '18

22 Jun '18

Ok, sorry - that was a lame subject line but hopefully caught your attention;-> We are looking for volunteers to help us capture the sessions at the 0x12 conference. The end goal is to make the larger community aware of these discussions. The reports will be sent to Linux Weekly News(lwn). Pick one or two talks that you are interested in; to ease thing for you we will ask the speakers to be accessible to you and if it would help give you early access to slides and papers. For a sample space of what we did in 2.2 look at: https://lwn.net/Articles/738759/ and: https://lwn.net/Articles/738895/ cheers, jamal

0x12: BoF: Congestion Control for Cellular Wireless Networks
by Jamal Hadi Salim 19 Jun '18

19 Jun '18

The program committee has accepted a BoF session. Cellular networks exhibit significant variations in bottleneck link rates even over short time durations. AQM techniques like fq-codel with ECN feedback are insufficient. It is challenging to properly evaluate congestion control approaches over cellular network paths; it gets difficult when it involves in-network mechanisms, since it is not easy to deploy a test network running new network-layer mechanisms in such setups. Hari Balakrishnan et al will lead a BoF discussion to help formalize the constraints of the problem and formulate ways in which the community should evaluate congestion control protocols for cellular networks. This BOF will put forward an evaluation technique involving collection of real-world cellular network traces and then replaying them on Linux based infrastructure. The Mahimahi toolset facilitates such a setup utilizing Linux containers. This approach allows for experimenting and validating newly coded algorithms on Linux in an accurate environment. To kick things off in this BoF and frame future discussions, Hari et will illustrate how to use collected traces and evaluate the Accel-Brake Control (ABC) approach using the Mahimahi toolset.

0x12: New Event! Bits, Nibbles, Bytes and Words
by Jamal Hadi Salim 18 Jun '18

18 Jun '18

The Bits, Nibbles, Bytes and Words event will be held on day 2 of Netdev 0x12 conference at the outdoor terrace of the Hyatt Regency on July 12th at 6 pm[1] with a beautiful view of downtown Montreal. We will be serving cocktails, bits and bites and an opportunity to network between attendees, sponsors, and open source linux networking projects. Food bits will be nibbled on, bitten into, and words (only big words, the best words!) will be exchanged! This event is open to all attendees and anyone accompanying them to the conference (family members, etc - dont have to be registered). We just ask that if you are bringing someone just let the registration desk know when you pick your badge so we can plan better for food and drinks. We will have tables for sponsors for marketing and recruiting. We will also provide a table for any project that is open to make attendees aware of their work (we will send out a separate note requesting open source projects to request for space). cheers, jamal [1]https://montreal.regency.hyatt.com/multimedia/fr/regency/mtlrm/gateway.im…

0x12: New Nuts-n-Bolts Talk! UDP segmentation offload
by Jamal Hadi Salim 15 Jun '18

15 Jun '18

UDP segmentation was recently introduced to the Linux kernel. In this talk, Boris Pismenny and Yossi Kupperman present their efforts towards supporting UDP segmentation offload with existing net devices. They will talk about limitations they encountered and how they overcame them. Based on these experiences, Boris and Yossi have some suggestion on how to improve the Linux networking stack to generalize their work and make driver development easier. More info at: https://www.netdevconf.org/0x12/session.html?udp-segmentation-offload cheers, jamal
