There are a couple of requirements in the draft performance specification that need clarification as to which open source projects (if any) apply to them. They are: PRF.4.1 Low Software Overhead For Message Latency Description: OSDL CGL specifies that carrier grade Linux shall provide a new communication service scheme to support low software latency based on a zero-copy architecture that uses memory mapping and a simplified path between the user and physical layer to reduce abstract layer overhead. PRF.4.4 ARP Cache Immediate Flush On Client Description: OSDL CGL specifies that carrier grade Linux shall enable an immediate update to the address resolution protocol (ARP) cache on client nodes when an IP or interface configuration changes to enable fast IP address migration on the client side. Feedback on both the wording of these requirements and projects that relate to these requirements are welcome. The origin of these requirements is a bit hazy and they may be relegated to roadmap items if we can't clarify them.
