Abstract: 

StackMap leverages the best aspects of kernel-bypass networking into a new low-latency OS network service based on the full-featured TCP kernel implementation, by dedicating network interfaces to applications and offering an extended version of the netmap API for zero-copy, low-overhead data path alongside control path based on socket API. For small-message, transactional workloads, StackMap outperforms baseline Linux by 4 to 78 % in latency and 42 to 133 % in throughput. It also achieves comparable performance with Seastar, a highly-optimized user-level TCP/IP stack that runs on top of DPDK.
