Hey Folks,
this time I will talk about a pretty awesome feature in the Linux kernel: AF_XDP. Please keep in mind, that this is a summary and explanation in my own words, and it’s not intended to fully cover all technical depths. The focus lies on understanding AF_XDP’s core concepts, learn how to use it, and what to consider while using it.
The official kernel documentation describes AF_XDP as “an address family that is optimized for high performance packet processing”.
