AFAIU they just ignore tap device and run a raw socket on it. Dumping packet from raw socket has faster interface than the device itself.&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;github.com&amp;#x2F;google&amp;#x2F;gvisor&amp;#x2F;blob&amp;#x2F;master&amp;#x2F;pkg&amp;#x2F;tcpip&amp;#x2F;link&amp;#x2F;fdbased&amp;#x2F;mmap_unsafe.go#L50&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;github.com&amp;#x2F;google&amp;#x2F;gvisor&amp;#x2F;blob&amp;#x2F;master&amp;#x2F;pkg&amp;#x2F;tcpip&amp;#x2F;link&amp;#x2F;...&lt;/a&gt;

<instructions>Your goal is to analyze the following comment and estimate how highly it will be upvoted by the Hacker News community.</instructions><comment><author>rwmj</author><text>For something completely different, you might want to look at Unikernel Linux: &lt;a href=&quot;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;arxiv.org&amp;#x2F;abs&amp;#x2F;2206.00789&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;arxiv.org&amp;#x2F;abs&amp;#x2F;2206.00789&lt;/a&gt;  You could run all the code without switching between userspace and the kernel, and you can call into kernel functions directly (with the usual caveats about kernel ABI not being stable).&lt;p&gt;There is a v1 patch posted on LKML, and I think they&amp;#x27;re hoping to get a v2 patch posted by January.  If you are interested in a chat with the team, email me rjones redhat.com.</text><parent_chain></parent_chain></comment><story><title>Userspace isn&apos;t slow, some kernel interfaces are</title><url>https://tailscale.com/blog/throughput-improvements/</url></story>
