Any plans to upstream this, or similar work happening?

Hi, thanks for publishing this! I was curious if you're aware of any work to take this code or your ideas and incorporate them into kernel mainline? Thanks!

Hi,

We are not planning to upstream this. I also don't see a good reason why it should go to the mainline. These ideas are primarily used in data center scenarios. Some patches consist of similar ideas that haven't been merged to the mainline yet. Please find the following patch. https://lkml.org/lkml/2019/9/6/178

Here is also a similar project that worked on the Linux kernel:

Thanks,
