XDP FW: eXpress Data Path FireWall module

This repo contains source code implementing a basic layer3 filtering using Linux fast-path XDP design. This code is an experiment in order to extend current Keepalvied/VRRP framework to support high-performance filtering.

This code operate in stand-alone mode with no extra lib dependencies. In order to make it properly working you need to use a recent toolchain. This code has been implemented and tested on Ubuntu bionic with Ubuntu provided kernel 4.20.3. It implements BPF object pinning in order to manipulate filtering rules and keep them persistent.

Experiments have been made using a KVM/Qemu env. In order to get it working following configurations has been done to Qemu conf :

$ tail -2 /etc/libvirt/qemu.conf
rx_queue_size = 1024
tx_queue_size = 1024

$ virsh edit node1
    ...
