      The format and time works for me.
Thanks,
Vedang.

Hi,
No I did not receive your response, regarding conversion to BoF,  I have
subscribed to People's mailing list for netdev and receive updates around
the same, but not this one.
...
Ok, thats strange.
Basically a better opportunity is to make a BoF format - then we can
allow it to be virtual on Monday and give you an hour.
Title could be: "Real-Time Prevention of DNS-Based Data Exfiltration BoF"

Thanks,
Vedang.

Did you not get my response earlier on converting your talk to a BoF?

Hi,
I wanted to follow up regarding my response to the conditions for
acceptance at the conference. I look forward to hearing from you to
finalize the format of my attendance. Please let me know if any further
steps are required from my side.

Thank you for your time and consideration.

Hi
Thank you for accepting my submission for inclusion in the
conference.
...
...
...
...
However, for talk in the nuts and bolts category, it won't be
possible for me to attend physically at the conference venue due to visa
restrictions, and my final graduate research defence.
...
...
...
...
I am perfectly fine for the 45 minutes time limit though including
QA. It would be really helpful if virtual talk is allowed for this
submission.
...
...
...
...
Alternatively, it is also fine for me to host a workshop virtually,
but since my work is more tailoring towards security, I would prefer it to
be put into the security category (internally using eBPF, kernel network
stack, deep learning, distributed event streaming). My focus for the
workshop would be more towards presenting advancement in building  data
loss prevention solutions for DNS to prevent all the emerging threats
...
...
...
...
I have attached the modified proposal with changed title and
abstract for workshop  and source code repository.
...
...
...
...
I would say my talk does not focus on discussing features lacking in
eBPF in the kernel, rather only focuses on utilizing eBPF modern features
added in latest  kernel versions for building modern security solutions.
However, I will still talk about eBPF kernel verifier instruction
limitation causing some difficulty for me to fully parse DNS protocol
questions inside the kernel.
...
...
...
...
This is an open source framework built by me for my graduate
research, and I would like to share my learnings with the kernel community.
...
...
...
...
Also attaching the proposal for talk, if allowed to be held
virtually,  with source code repository.
...
...
...
...
I look forward to hearing from you soon, about the next steps and
format. I could present my research at netdev 0x19.
...
...
...
...
Thanks,
Vedang.

Dear Vedang,
The Netdev 0x19 program committee is informing you that your
submission #9
...
...
...
...
...
has been accepted to appear in the conference with conditions.
   Title: Real-Time Prevention of DNS-Based Data Exfiltration

Using
...
...
...
...
...
          eBPF, Deep Learning, and Event-Driven Analytics: A

Security
...
...
...
...
...
          Framework for Distributed Environments

We think your session is interesting, however because we received a
large
...
...
...
...
...
volume of submissions we prioritized to allowing talks where the
speakers
...
...
...
...
...
would actually show up. Are you able to show up? If yes, that will
automatically grant you a slot for a talk. But we can only give you
upto 45
...
...
...
...
...
minutes including QA.
Alternatively, we could put you in a workshop for machine learning
which
...
...
...
...
...
will give you the opportunity to present virtually.
In addition, here are some reviewer comments
It would be interesting to hear about which limitations of BPF the
authors
...
...
...
...
...
ran into while implementing this, and whether there are any
features they
...
...
...
...
...
were missing from the kernel/BPF side that would make their
implementation
...
...
...
...
...
easier. It is not clear from the proposal whether this is part of
the talk.
...
...
...
...
...
Also, the proposal doesn't state whether this is an open source
framework
...
...
...
...
...
with code available. Is it?
