Using XDP for Egress Traffic XDP only works for ingress. We found a loophole that lets it work for egress. Here's how we did the impossible.

An eBPF Loophole: Using XDP for Egress Traffic

XDP is Linux's fastest packet processor but only handles incoming traffic. We found a loophole in how the kernel determines packet direction to make it work for outgoing traffic too!

Well that filled up quick.

1.7k members but 200 seats.

If you have a large space in SF and are willing to sponsor an event, dm me.

Please boost for reach. We need larger venues!

had multiple dreams last night that spanned topics including ConfigMaps, fuschia, plan9, BGP and anycast, back to back to back.

so, safe to say touching grass is very much on the agenda this weekend

Absolutely love how sales people call their areas "Territories"; pure Western Expansion/early 19th century American Frontier vibes

one thing i love about systems programming is that when you get low level enough, things are extremely simple, and from there, you can build things beyond anyone's imagination

unexpected response to the recording of my talk "Moving Beyond Containers" at @Wasm

- 50k views in < 2 weeks

- 100s of mailing list signups

- dozens of ppl reaching out about collaboration

seems kinda wild for a pre-alpha OSS project πŸ˜…

Howdy @d-philla.bsky.social ! πŸ‘ Such a great talk from wasm/io I just wathced over on YT; quick Q...

I'm imagining sandboxing runtimes in here (go / jvm), what is the ceiling? At first, something alpine:latest - then full go server, then full nodejs serverless or web servers.

no, not crazy at all, I love all of it! honestly, if the details can be worked out, there's a lot of really interesting things possible, not least of which all the things you mentioned :)

24.04.2025 23:59 β€” πŸ‘ 1    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 0    πŸ“Œ 0

that's an excellent question! may be a little too soon to tell, but obviously a lot of interesting gains to be made on the approach to orchestrating something like this, that can run across more heterogeneous environments

Just watched your talk. If Boxer is a kind of Docker, and Marcotte is the Linux, what would be the Kubernetes of this?

might be biased, but i think the work we are doing at @loopholelabs.io with eBPF is among the most interesting use-cases in the entire space
