This panel explores how to map FPGA PCIe address space directly into user mode to bypass portions of the Linux kernel, enabling extremely high‑performance data paths. Daniel and Emily will discuss the architectural considerations, challenges, and benefits of this approach, along with real‑world applications where kernel bypass techniques dramatically improve throughput and latency.
Attendees will gain insight into how FPGAs interface with Linux, what it takes to safely expose hardware resources to user space, and why developers might choose this model for specialized workloads.
