AI for Kernel Engineers - Sasha Levin, NVIDIA

Monday June 23, 2025 11:20am - 12:00pm MDT

Bluebird Ballroom 2D

Beyond the hype, AI is already impacting Linux kernel engineering workflows. This talk presents concrete examples from real-world applications in Linux kernel LTS maintenance and CVE assignment processes. We'll examine where AI tools have meaningfully improved development processes and where they fall short.
Drawing from hands-on experience, we'll demonstrate how AI assists in analyzing patches for LTS kernel trees and streamlines vulnerability classification workflows. We'll share specific metrics showing both successes and limitations, focusing on practical applications rather than theoretical possibilities. We'll also explore emerging opportunities where AI could enhance kernel development while maintaining high engineering standards.
This technical session provides kernel developers, maintainers, and engineering leaders with actionable insights for integrating AI tools into their workflows while preserving the rigor of kernel development practices.

Securing File Integrity Without Performance Overhead - V Sreenivas, Stackup

Monday June 23, 2025 11:20am - 12:00pm MDT

Bluebird Ballroom 2E

Maintaining system integrity requires making sure that only permitted files are run. By calculating and comparing file digests, conventional techniques like the Integrity Measurement Architecture (IMA) confirm the integrity of files. Unfortunately, these methods lack flexibility in policy modifications and frequently result in performance bottlenecks from repetitive disk reads. An eBPF-based method that improves file integrity verification without requiring modifications to current data formats is shown in this session. This eBPF solution functions as a stand-alone element, in contrast to earlier suggestions like IMA Digest Lists, which rely on static configurations. It enables dynamic policy modifications based on real-time observations by giving other security modules on-demand reference digest values. Through techniques like eBPF, this system may be expanded with additional parsers and comes with parsers for a variety of data formats. In order to guarantee that cryptographic keys are only used when accessed files have known digests, it can function during the early startup stages and provide deterministic reading of data sources.

Monday June 23, 2025 1:30pm - 2:10pm MDT

Bluebird Ballroom 2D

COSMIC DE is a new, full-featured desktop environment (like GNOME and KDE) written from scratch in the Rust programming language. It does not rely on GTK or Qt. Instead COSMIC uses a new Rust GUI toolkit called iced and the system76 developed libcosmic toolkit for building interfaces and applications with advanced theming and customization features.

COSMIC DE includes a suite of first-party applications including a file browser, text editor, application store, settings, and terminal. There is also a growing community of third-party apps. COSMIC includes a custom compositor that features variable refresh rate, Xwayland support, animations, fractional scaling, modern hybrid graphics features, window snapping and auto-tiling.

What makes COSMIC truly unique is that it's the first modular, composable desktop environment. For a user that means they can easily adapt COSMIC to their preferred workflow. Linux distributions can create wholly unique user experiences.
And companies can develop unique products using COSMIC.

Carl will discuss why system76 built COSMIC DE, show its features, and demonstrate how unique experiences can be composed with COSMIC DE.

Make Valkey Multi-threaded With Userspace RCU - Jim Huang, National Cheng Kung University

Monday June 23, 2025 2:25pm - 3:05pm MDT

Bluebird Ballroom 2E

This presentation explores how to create a multi-threaded version of Valkey by employing userspace Read-Copy-Update (RCU) to achieve high performance. With fewer than 2,000 lines of code modifications, we introduce a coordinator-worker pattern, enabling key-value stores like Valkey and Redis to handle tasks concurrently across multiple threads while using a per-thread event loop for I/O operations. Userspace RCU facilitates lock-free data sharing between a writer thread and multiple reader threads, dramatically improving read performance.

Our experiments show that the multi-threaded Valkey can achieve over one million operations per second on a standard server.

Navigating the Sea of CVEs: Securing Your Linux Distributions - Jess Lowe & Holly Gong, Google

Monday June 23, 2025 2:25pm - 3:05pm MDT

Bluebird Ballroom 2D

Are you drowning in a sea of vulnerability advisories, wondering why patching one thing doesn't fix everything? Despite a shared origin, a CVE's impact diverges significantly across Linux distributions. Consequently, a fix at the source does not automatically translate to comprehensive protection downstream. Each distribution requires independent patching, leading to a complex web of security advisories stemming from a single flaw.

In this talk, you'll learn how OSV tools can help you navigate this sea of advisories. We'll explore the root causes of advisory proliferation in Linux and demonstrate how OSV.dev aggregates and cross-references vulnerability data at scale to provide a more complete picture. You'll also see how OSV-Scanner accurately identifies vulnerabilities in your Linux systems, considering distribution-specific nuances and offering actionable guidance. By the end of this session, you'll be equipped with the knowledge and tools to patch smarter and secure your Linux infrastructure more effectively.

State Persistence Over kexec - Mike Rapoport, Microsoft

Monday June 23, 2025 3:35pm - 4:15pm MDT

Bluebird Ballroom 2E

For long time kexec was a faster way to reboot a machine without incurring delays caused by firmware and bootloaders. However for many applications even a kexec reboot still means significant service degradation, like disruption of the running guests in virtualized environments and the need to rebuild in-memory caches for large databases.

We propose Kexec HandOver (KHO) mechanism that allows serialization and deserialization of kernel data as well as preserving arbitrary memory ranges across kexec.

In addition, KHO keeps physically contiguous memory regions that are guaranteed to not have any memory that KHO would preserve, but still can be used by the system. The kexeced kernel bootstraps itself using those regions and marks all handed over memory as in use. KHO users then can recover their state from the preserved data. This includes memory reservations, where the user can either discard or claim reservations.

Improve Load Balancing With Machine Learning Techniques Based on the Sched_ext Framework - Jim Huang, National Cheng Kung University

Monday June 23, 2025 4:30pm - 5:10pm MDT

Bluebird Ballroom 2D

This talk presents a method to enhance CPU scheduling by leveraging machine learning (ML) to extract the key features necessary for task migration, allowing for dynamic and stable optimization of workloads in scenarios prone to CPU imbalance. The approach is built on the sched_ext framework, which integrates eBPF to support user-defined scheduling policies within the Linux kernel.

While conventional approaches maximize CPU utilization, they often overlook contention for lower-level hardware resources, leading to performance bottlenecks -- particularly in compute-intensive servers. By using an ML-based, resource-aware load balancer, this method effectively addresses such imbalances. With sched_ext, we can collect training data and run inference on the model without modifying the kernel.

Our experiments demonstrate that, for certain workloads, this ML-driven approach can outperform EEVDF, offering notable performance gains for the CPU scheduler.

Extending Container Performance Isolation: Regulating Memory Bandwidth & Cache in the Kernel - Jonathan Perry, Unvariance

Tuesday June 24, 2025 11:55am - 12:35pm MDT

Bluebird Ballroom 2D

While containers provide isolation for CPU cycles and memory capacity, they offer limited protection against performance interference through shared CPU caches and memory bandwidth. Such contention was shown to increase application response times by 4-13x. The Linux resctrl infrastructure provides monitoring and control mechanisms, but has limitations for controlling real-world applications.

For example, child processes do not inherit their parent's resctrl groups, leaving any application that forks improperly monitored and controlled. Additionally, the current filesystem-based interface makes it difficult to build a controller that can monitor and adjust quickly enough to keep up with frequently changing application memory behavior.

This talk introduces the memory interference problem and presents new kernel mechanisms to address these limitations. A new collector enables effective control by capturing per-container measurements of cache and memory bandwidth usage at millisecond frequencies. We'll cover how the solution combines Intel RDT, AMD QoS, high-resolution timers, perf counters, and cgroups to achieve this. We'll discuss future work and opportunities for collaboration.

Rex: Safe and Usable Kernel Extensions in Rust - Jinghao Jia, University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign

Tuesday June 24, 2025 2:10pm - 2:50pm MDT

Bluebird Ballroom 2D

We present the Rex project (https://github.com/rex-rs/rex). Rex is a Linux kernel extension framework that allows extension programs to be written in safe Rust. Rex offers similar safety guarantees to eBPF. Unlike eBPF-based tools like Aya, Rex extensions are not compiled into eBPF bytecode. Rex eliminates the in-kernel verifier – the safety of Rex extensions is built atop language-based safety plus runtime protection. Specifically, the Rex compiler enforces Rex extensions to be written in a subset of safe Rust, and emits native code directly. Rex implements its kernel crate with a safe interface that wraps existing eBPF interface. Rex also employs a lightweight runtime that implements graceful Rust panic handling with resource cleanups, kernel stack checks, and program termination.

Rex provides a more usable and arguably safer alternative to eBPF. The usability advantage comes from the elimination of in-kernel verifiers that are known to reject safe extension programs with cryptic feedback. We also show that Rex’s runtime protection provides stronger safety than eBPF in a few aspects, e.g., protecting kernel stacks from overflowing.

Tuesday June 24, 2025 3:05pm - 3:45pm MDT

Bluebird Ballroom 2D

The vmalloc mechanism in the Linux kernel provides contiguous virtual memory allocations, even when the underlying physical memory is non-contiguous. However, with increasing adoption and usage, the synchronization of vmalloc data structures poses significant performance challenges, particularly in many-core systems with 256+ cores.

This session will explore the scalability improvements made to the vmalloc mechanism, covering the following key topics:

1. An overview of the legacy vmalloc approach, which relies on a single global lock for data synchronization.

2. Introduction to an enhanced vmap node implementation designed to address the limitations of the legacy approach.

3. Identification and detailed analysis of two remaining performance bottlenecks despite the enhanced vmap node implementation, along with their proposed solutions.

Join us to gain insights into the evolving design of vmalloc and its implications for performance in modern high-core-count systems.

Self-Driving DAMON/S: Controlled and Automated Access-aware Efficient Systems - SeongJae Park, Meta

Wednesday June 25, 2025 11:00am - 11:40am MDT

Bluebird Ballroom 2B

Data access monitoring and access-aware system operations based on it can be very useful and efficient when it is used wisely. Otherwise, it can be useless or even harmful. Hence, users are often required to do time-consuming and repetitive testing and tuning. It is not only data access monitoring's problem but a common issue at system-level operations.

DAMON is a Linux kernel subsystem for efficient data access monitoring and access-aware system operations. It mitigates the tuning problem by embedding a few automation mechanisms that allows users to run it in an automated for best outputs, but still safely controlled way.

This talk introduces the tuning problem and DAMON's automation mechanisms in detail, with usage guidelines and evaluation results. Audiences will be able to understand how they can use DAMON for more efficient system, and get some ideas about how to solve the tuning problems in general.

The Big-endian RISC-V Linux Adventure - Ben Dooks, Codethink

Wednesday June 25, 2025 11:55am - 12:35pm MDT

Bluebird Ballroom 2B

The latest RISC-V ISA specification allows for runtime configuration of the data endian between little and big. Since no one had done this before, we decided to investigate how difficult it would be to get a prototype Linux implementation running in big endian on an emulated RISC-V system such as under QEMU.

The talk goes from the description of the new ISA feature, our initial analysis and the modifications to software such as the Linux kernel, QEMU and OpenSBI and an overview of the issues that we found and how to fix them. This includes kvm and how that works with mixed endian kvm instances, and the modifications to kvmtool to make this work.

We conclude with how the project went, what we published and a call to arms to continue testing and fixing outstanding issues.
