Hello Konrad, some things to think of while using AF_XDP. - Received data is forwarded to an AF_XDP socket with the bps_redirect_map call in the kernel part. You are sending the data to the first AF_XDP socket all the time. - With AF_XDP one bypasses all the TCP/IP stack of the Linux kernel. This means that one needs to set the Ethernet, IP, UDP (or TCP) headers by themselves at the beginning of the packet. (I don’t exactly know if this is needed for the loopback adapter you are using) You might want to have a look at other AF_XDP implementations. One is in my repo: https://github.com/gerl1ng/afxdp-packet-processor (folder server_afxdp). Some more information is given in the PDF in that repo. Marius > On 1.
