We started discussions about this in IOvisor. The Huawei project is called ceth (Common Ethernet). It is essentially a layer called directly from drivers intended for fast path forwarding and network virtualization. They have put quite a bit of effort into buffer management and other parts of the infrastructure, much of which we would like to leverage in XDP. The code is currently in github, will ask them to make it generally accessible.
Cant seem to find any info on it on the googles. If it is forwarding then it should hopefully at least make use of Linux control APIs I hope. cheers, jamal
