PROGRAMMING A PACKET PROCESSING PIPELINE

Abstract:

Examples described herein relate to a packet processing device that includes a programmable packet processing pipeline that is configured using a virtual switch. In some examples, the programmable packet processing pipeline is to receive configurations from multiple control planes via the virtual switch to configure packet processing actions. In some examples, the virtual switch is to provide inter-virtual execution environment communications. In some examples, the programmable packet processing pipeline is configured using a programming language.
