Comment on Using the IOMMU for Safe and Secure User Space Drivers [pdf]

Comments

This paper doesn't cover BPF or XDP, which is the future of high speed networking in the kernel. If you need to do user space processing and XDP can't meet your requirements, you can now use AF_XDP. DPDK was always a way of circumventing the kernel, now we have kernel approved methods for line speed network processing.
