Demikernel
Demikernel is a library operating system (LibOS) architecture designed for use with kernel-bypass I/O devices. This architecture offers a uniform system call API across kernel-bypass technologies (e.g., RDMA, DPDK) and OS functionality (e.g., a user-level networking stack for DPDK).
To read more about the motivation behind the Demikernel, check out this blog post.
To get details about the system, read our paper in SOSP '21.
