Announcing bpftune for Linux
- lokar 3y agoI don’t get it. Most of the examples if not all can just be set to a constant. You should not be auto-tuning the congestion control algorithm selection at runtime.
- claviola 3y agoFrom the blog post here: https://blogs.oracle.com/linux/post/introducing-bpftune https://blogs.oracle.com/linux/post/introducing-bpftune "A lot of lore accumulates around these tunables, and to help clarify why we developed bpftune, we will use a straw-man version of the approach taken with tunables: “find the set of magic numbers that will work for the system forever” This is obviously a caricature of how administrators approach the problem, but it does highlight a critical implicit assumption - that systems are static."
