Series | net/smc: Introduce SMC-D-based OS internal communication acceleration | expand |
Hi Wenjia & Jan: Does this version work fine on your platform? And any comments on this version? :) Best regards, Wen Gu On 2023/4/23 20:17, Wen Gu wrote: > Hi, all > > # Background > > The background and previous discussion can be referred from [1]~[3]. > > We found SMC-D can be used to accelerate OS internal communication, such as > loopback or between two containers within the same OS instance.

As we have agreed in our calls, the information shared about SMC-D in specific doesn't make it easy to understand the underlying concepts (e.g. role of GID, EIDs, DMB tokens, etc.). That's why one of the next calls is dedicated to explain some of the concepts in depth to you and see where we can improve our flow of information to the community in the future. After that we can go over this RFC with a shared understanding of the concepts.
