SUMMARY:SmartNICs Summit
DESCRIPTION:Don’t miss the P4 Workshop taking place at the SmartNICs Summit on Tuesday\, April 26th\, 1-pm. \nMario Baldi\, Pensando (Moderator)\nGordon Brebner\, AMD\nCarmelo Cascone\, Intel \n\n\n\nSession Description:\n\n\nP4 is a programming language for specifying how network devices such as switches\, routers\, and NICs process packets. Vendors have used it as the programming language of choice for many products\, such as the Cisco Silicon One chipsets\, the Barefoot Tofino switches\, the Pensando Distributed Services Cards\, the AMD SN1000 SmartNIC\, and the Aruba CX 10000 smart switch. It is particularly useful for today’s applications that employ software-defined networking (SDN). Using P4 makes network devices easier to program\, debug\, document\, maintain\, and update. The main ideas behind P4 are: \n– Close relationship with typical packet processing tasks. P4 programs specify how packet headers are parsed and what actions are taken based on field values. \n– Protocol independence: Network devices are not tied to specific protocols. \n-Target independence: Programmers can describe packet processing for any underlying hardware. \n– Reconfigurability in the field: Programmers can change the way switches process packets after deployment. \nThe P4 ecosystem includes an extensive range of products\, projects\, and services. The P4 website (p4.org) is a great source to learn about P4 and join the community. P4’s current tasks include the definition of a Portable NIC Architecture (PNA). Special Feature: Attendees will have opportunities to write P4 code and corresponding control plane functions.

SUMMARY:4th P4 Workshop in Europe (EuroP4) 2021
DESCRIPTION:DECEMBER 13\, 2021 | VIRTUAL\nThe 4th European P4 Workshop (EuroP4) brought together networking researchers to discuss cutting-edge\, P4-based\, research. The workshop provided a venue for P4-based research and projects\, a place to discuss P4-based tools\, and the research community needs. The workshop aims to forge connections between researchers\, introduce more networking researchers to the P4 community\, and seed future top-tier publications and innovation. \nEuroP4 was held in conjunction with ACM/IEEE ANCS’21. \nGeneral Chair\nFernando Ramos\, University of Lisbon \nProgram Chairs\nMario Baldi\, Pensando Systems\nBen Pfaff\, VMware \nSteering Committee\nRobert Soulé\, Yale University\nNoa Zilberman\, University of Oxford \nOrganizing Committee\nPublicity Chair: Damu Ding\, University of Oxford\nHotcrp Chair: Francisco Pereira\, University of Lisbon \nTechnical Program Committee\nGianni Antichi\, Queen Mary University of London\nMina Tahmasbi Arashloo\, Cornell University\nGiuseppe Bianchi\, University of Rome Tor Vergata\nRoberto Bifulco\, NEC Laboratories Europe\nGordon Brebner\, Xilinx\nMihai Budiu\, VMware Research\nAndrea Campanella\, Open Networking Foundation\nMauro Campanella\, GARR\nMarco Chiesa\, KTN Royal Institute of Technology\nNate Foster\, Cornell University\nTheo Jepsen\, Stanford University\nSándor Laki\, Eötvös Loránd University\nShir Landau-Feibish\, Princeton University\nSebastiano Miano\, Queen May University of London\nBrian O’Connor\, Open Networking Foundation\nGergely Pongrácz\, Ericsson Research\nSalvatore Pontarelli\, Sapienza University\nGábor Rétvári\, Budapest University of Technology and Economics\nChristian Esteve Rothenberg\, University of Campinas\nStefan Schmid\, University of Vienna & TU Berlin \nAgenda\n10:15 – 10:30\nWelcome and Introductions\nMario Baldi and Ben Pfaff \n10:30 – 11:30\nKeynote talk by Bruce Davie\nSession Chair: Ben Pfaff \nTitle: Always in the Kitchen at Parties: Separating Guests from Infrastructure\nAbstract: There is an emerging consensus that the services necessary to operate a cloud\, including network virtualization\, isolation of tenants\, storage services\, etc.\, are good candidates for offloading from the general-purpose servers that host guest workloads. These infrastructure (or “overhead”) services have historically run in the same servers that host guest workloads\, but now the point of control is moving to IPUs (infrastructure processing units)\, DPUs (data processing units)\, and SmartNICs. The challenge is in developing offload processors that are both efficient for the required tasks and sufficiently flexible to allow continued innovation. This talk traces the long history of offloading services from the CPU to more specialised offload engines\, and speculates on how this offloading trend will impact the architecture of future cloud data centres. \nBio: Bruce Davie is a computer scientist noted for his contributions to the field of networking. He recently co-founded (with Larry Peterson) Systems Approach\, LLC\, to produce open source books and educational materials. He is a former VP and CTO for the Asia Pacific region at VMware.

SUMMARY:P4 Hackathon at IETF105
DESCRIPTION:P4 Hackathon at IETF 105 in Montreal on July 20-21\, 2019.\nThe Computing in the Network (COIN) IRTF research group will host a P4 Hackathon at IETF 105 in Montreal on July 20 and 21. The goal of the hackathon is to give the COIN community a way to investigate new applications in P4 and develop prototypes of potential new applications. As of now\, a lot of P4 development has focused on data centers\, but we would like the hackathon to address the DC-edge programming spectrum. \nTopics of interest include industrial applications for fault detection\, data filtering in streaming media\, autonomous devices at the edge and distributed networking. Participants will be provided with all the tools necessary to create their application. \nFor more information about COIN\, subscribe to their mailing list or visit their wiki.

These limitations arise from three different areas: IC technology\, architectural inefficiencies\, and changing applications and usage. The end of Dennard scaling and the slowdown in Moore’s Law will require much more efficient architectural approaches than we have relied on. Although progress on general-purpose processors may hit an asymptote\, domain specific architectures may be the one attractive path for important classes of problems\, at least until we invent a flexible and competitive replacement for silicon.\n\n\n\n\n\n3:20 – 3:50pm\n\nBreak and Demo Visits\n\n\n\n\nSESSION CHAIR: Gordon Brebner (Xilinx) \n\n\n3:50 – 4:10pm\n\nUsing Programmable Chip and Open Source Software to disaggregate Network Packet Broker (NPB) and 5G UPF (Abstract) (Slides) (Video)Speaker: Chris Sueng-Y.

SUMMARY:P4 Developer Day 2019
DESCRIPTION:A Presentation by the P4 Language Consortium\nHeld at Stanford University on Tuesday\, April 30\, 2019\nSpecial Thanks to our Sponsors:\n  \nVenue\nAddress: Arrillaga Alumni Center\, 326 Galvez St\, Stanford\, CA 94305\nDirections:\n  \nDeveloper Day Tracks\nNew for this year\, we are offering two tracks for the developer day: a beginner track and an advanced track. Both tracks will be delivered by experienced instructors and using a software platform that will be made available shortly before the Developer Day itself. \n  \nBeginner Track\nThis track is for developers who are new to P4 and want a tutorial-style introduction to the languages main features. It is organized around a series of programming exercises in which participants implement conventional and novel solutions to various problems in networking including: \n\nBasic forwarding\, tunneling\, and source routing\nLoad balancing\nMonitoring and telemetry\nP4Runtime\n\nOnly basic programming knowledge is required\, but familiarity with Python and using a Linux virtual machines will be helpful. \n\nVirtual Machine\nWe have created a VM with everything needed to work on the tutorial exercises\, including the P4 Compiler\, Behavioral Model\, starter code\, and editors. We suggest downloading the VM and executing the instructions below ahead of the tutorial. \nUse the following link to download the VM image (5.2 GB). \n\nImport and Run the VM\nThe VM is in .ova format and has been created using VirtualBox. To run the VM you can use any modern virtualization system\, although we recommend using VirtualBox. For instructions on how to get VirtualBox and import the VM\, use the following links: \nVirtualBox Download \nImporting a VM \nLogin Credentials (To access the Ubuntu system in the VM\, use the following credentials with sudo privileges): \n\nUser: p4\nPassword: p4\n\n\nSystem Requirements\nThe current configuration of the VM is 2 GB of RAM and 2 CPUs. These are the recommended minimum system requirements to complete the exercises. When imported\, the VM takes approximately 8 GB of disk space. For the best experience\, we recommend running the VM on a host system that has at least twice as many resources. \n\nAgenda\n  \n\nAdvanced Track\nThis track is for developers with intermediate knowledge of the P4 language. It is organized around a sequence of hands-on exercises that show how to build a leaf-spine data center fabric based on Segment Routing over IPv6 (SRv6)\, using the ONOS SDN controller: \n\nBasic forwarding\nBridging\nSRv6\nONOS Control Plane\nTesting in Mininet\n\nOnly basic knowledge of Java is required. The track will include a brief introduction to ONOS for beginners. Participants will be provided with a skeleton implementation of the applicationq to complete\, filling in the relevant parts to generate run-time table entries and other entities to implement bridging and SRv6 capabilities. \n\nVirtual Machine\nWe have created a VM with everything needed to work on the tutorial exercises\, including ONOS\, stratum_bmv2\, Mininet\, P4Runtime\, PTF\, and code editors. We suggest downloading the VM and executing the instructions below ahead of the tutorial. \nUse the following link to download the VM (5.3 GB). Please also make note of the backup link. \n\n1.) Import and Run the VM\nThe VM is in .ova format and has been created using VirtualBox v6.0.6. To run the VM you can use any modern virtualization system\, although we recommend using VirtualBox. For instructions on how to get VirtualBox and import the VM\, use the following links: \nVirtualBox Download \nImporting a VM \nLogin Credentials (To access the Ubuntu system in the VM\, use the following credentials with sudo privileges): \n\nUser: sdn\nPassword: rocks\n\n\n* System Requirements\nThe current configuration of the VM is 4 GB of RAM and 4 core CPU. These are the recommended minimum system requirements to complete the exercises. When imported\, the VM takes approx. 8 GB of HDD space. For a flawless experience\, we recommend running the VM on a host system that has at least the double of resources. \n\n2.) Generate SSH Keys\nONOS uses SSH key-based authentication to access its command line interface (CLI). Before using ONOS\, you need to generate public/private rsa key pair using the following command inside the VM: \nCommand: ssh-keygen -t rsa -f ~/.ssh/id_rsa -P ‘’ -q \n\nAgenda\n  \nInstructors\n\nNate Foster (Cornell University)\nBrian O’Connor (Open Networking Foundation)\nCarmelo Cascone (Open Networking Foundation)\nAnd others (TBA)

Students will start by implementing a “Hello World”-style application to gain an understanding of P4 concepts. The lesson will progressively introduce core language features\, such as header/metadata types\, packet parsers\, and controls. By the end of this session\, students will be able to implement a basic IP router.\n\n\n\n\n\n10:30 – 11:00am\n\nBreak\n\n\n\n\n\n11:00 – 12:30\n\nP4 RuntimeInstructor: Brian O’Connor (ONF) Session 2 will cover software tools that are essential to developing P4 applications. Students will learn how to invoke the the P4 compiler\, run the debugger\, and start a P4 software switch. This session will also introduce the control-plane interfaces via P4 Runtime\, a protocol-independent API auto-generated from the definition of a packet processing pipeline written in P4.\n\n\n\n\n\n12:30 – 1:30pm\n\nLunch\n\n\n\n\n\n1:30 – 2:00pm\n\nKeynote: “Revisiting In-Network Control” Arvind Krishnamurthy (Washington)Abstract: Emerging programmable switches allow for flexible and reconfigurable packet processing at line rate. These emerging technologies address a key limitation with traditional SDN solutions that allow for only custom-plane customization but not data-plane customization needed by traffic management protocols that perform “in-network” control and per-packet processing.Despite their promising new functionality\, reconfigurable switches are not all-powerful; they have limited state\, support limited types of operations\, and limit per-packet computation in order to be able to operate at line rate. In this talk\, I describe how we can address these limitations by using novel approximation techniques and implement previously unrealized protocols that require in-network control. Our work thus represents a modest step towards enabling a “software defined data plane” that provides greater performance and isolation for datacenter applications.\n\n\n\n\n\n2:00-3:00\n\nMonitoring and DebuggingInstructor: Mina Tahmasbi Arashloo (Princeton University)Session 3 will focus on a set of labs related to network monitoring and debugging. In this session\, students will gain a deeper understanding of P4 language concepts\, including custom headers and intrinsic metadata. In the first exercise\, students will implement Explicit Congestion Notification (ECN) to set a congestion bit in a packet header when the queue depth exceeds a threshold. In the second exercise\, MRI\, students will implement a simplified version of In-Band Network Telemetry to track the path that packets travel through the network.\n\n\n\n\n\n3:00 – 3:30pm\n\nBreak\n\n\n\n\n\n3:30 – 4:30pm\n\nAdvanced Data StructuresInstructor: Nate Foster (Cornell University)Session 4 covers advanced data structures. In this session\, students will implement two data-plane applications. In the first\, source routing\, end-hosts specify paths through the network by using a stack of labels in the packet header. The switch must “pop” each label and forward out the appropriate interface. In the second\, students will implement a network calculator. Packets containing arithmetic expressions are sent to a switch. The switch will evaluate the expressions\, and return the results back to the sender.\n\n\n4:30-5:30\n\nPanel DiscussionModerator: Ben Pfaff (VMware)Panelists:\n\nBochra Boughzala (Kaloom)\nUyen Chau (ON.Lab)\nChris Sommers (Keysight)\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n5:30-6:30\n\nReception
