ADQ(Application Device Queues) support has been in the kernel for a while now. ADQ enables network application data to be isolated to specific (symmetric rx/tx) hardware netdevice queue pair(s). Application specific-data is ingressed towards these dedicated queues and rate controlled in the egress direction - all using policy definitions. ADQ uses standard Linux interfaces to achieve its goals.

In this talk, Amritha Nambiar, Kiran Patil and Sridhar Samudrala will: - dig into the details of ADQ architecture and operations. - illustrate collected data on how ADQ helps to improve predictability by reducing jitter, lowering latency and improving throughput. - show, via an example application, how developers can take advantage of ADQ.

Amritha et al will also discuss future plans for ADQ such as enabling busy polling on AF_XDP sockets by associating a NAPI_ID to an AF_XDP socket at bind time.
