Web: http://www.epics-project.eu/ Abstract: http://dl.acm.org/citation.cfm?id=2065222
Network programming is widely understood as programming strictly defined socket interfaces. Only some frameworks have made a step towards 'real' network programming by decomposing networking functionality into small modular blocks (functional blocks) that can be assembled in a flexible, graph-like manner. In this work, we tackle the challenge of accommodating 3 partially conflicting objectives:
(i) high flexibility for network programmers, (ii) re-configuration of the network stack at runtime, and (iii) high packet forwarding rates.
First experiences with a prototype implementation in Linux suggest little performance overhead compared to the standard Linux protocol stack.
How to browse the source: src/ - Contains all kernel modules of LANA usr/ - Contains userspace configuration tools for LANA app/ - Contains a voice-over-Ethernet application that uses PF_LANA BSD sockets sem/ - Contains a set of semantic patches that can be used with Coccinelle (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/) microblaze/ - SoC design files and kernel conf for the ML605 board LANA microblaze port: https://github.com/borkmann/linux-microblaze doc/ - The name says everything, you need LaTeX for this
Within the src/ folder, there are files named: fb_*.c - These are functional block kernel modules core.c - LANA core loader (-> lana.ko) xt_*.{c,h} - LANA core extensions
For questions, bugs and other things, you can write the authors, see the REPORTING-BUGS file. Happy Kernel Hacking! :-)
