Seeing many parents carrying a sleeping toddler at 6-7pm outside, I'm always wondering whether/how they manage the little one to sleep in the usual time..

TC-flower doesn't have such a mode, and even if there is, we'd use eBPF for sw because what we want is fast flow installation (by just map update).

The key technique is that we complement the weakness of tc offload (slow flow installation) with eBPF, rather than using eBPF just as backup when tc offload is unavailable.
In other words, XO works without tc offload but not without eBPF (for horrible performance). Anyways it's your call!

Pre-announcement on @netdevconf:
0x1A is scheduled to be in Rome - Italy July 13th-16th.
Location: Università Roma TRE - Via Ostiense, 236, 00144 Rome RM, Italy

More details coming soon. Be ready to share your work with the community #netdevconf

XO (NSDI'26) uses eBPF for fast TCP connection migration! micchie.net/files/xo-nsd...

Bye Tokyo✈️

Half done for the list in Japan.

Arrival food

WiFi still sucks in HND arrival.

overnight transit at a hotel before 14h flight (with a child) is not bad.

Kudos to our team at Edinburgh: Shuo Li, @tianyigao.net and Steven W. D. Chien (just started in the St Andrews faculty - work with him!)

Prism (NSDI'21) was great to bypass L7 proxy with TCP connection migration, but hard to deploy as it needs a programmable switch. XO (NSDI'26) removes this barrier and is applicable to real apps, nginx and Ceph!

ちょいちょい生ケーブルとか通販で買ってて、たまたま実店舗行ったときプチ感動した記憶があります！

愛三懐かしすぎる！

Never used Avanti so I will be cautious when I use it...

It gets worse when you've bought the ticket from the 3rd party as the QR code requires for refund just disappears on the app. I lived too long in Germany so I still feel British trains are amazing..

I think the link to the talk list is unreachable.

No idea why I make the same mistake again. freebsd-update sucks.

it was at least announced to the authors.

The election was announced just around a week ago and we can vote just over 5 days, poor Japan.

Yes, they always ask too much.

Grant rejection..

This is probably every Japanese wanted in UK! Maitame mushrooms have been only a part of mushroom mix, but we wanted just this one!

Some people say UK is not very child friendly, but I feel UK is when travelling back from France (Nice).

We're exploring how to move on from TLS/TCP in datacenters - check out our Oakland’26 paper* about encrypted message-based transport and NDSS’26 paper* about low latency, post quantum mTLS handshake! Congrats @tianyigao.net for ANRP!

First time ever I feel I need sunglasses in Glasgow.

Forty years ago, 21 people gathered for the first meeting of what became the IETF. Today, nearly 8000 IETF participants from around the world collaborate in more than 100 working groups and every day billions of people use technologies developed in the IETF. https://www.ietf.org/blog/ietf-40/

That's horrible.. Actually I skip many talks and instead spend in the hallway to talk to the people, but I imagine such confs also have an empty hallway..

Absolutely true, but it is unavoidable to submit to conferences just as the pub venue for the career of many..
