2024-09-17pvti: Packet Vector Tunnel InterfaceAndrew Yourtchenko1-0/+1153
This plugin implements a PoC of UDP-based tunnel substrate whose aim is to specifically provide higher MTU to the upper layers by chunking the payload PDUs into smaller packets with full 5-tuple. At the same time, if there are multiple small packets to the same destination during the vector processing, they are packed into "carrier" packets up to underlay MTU size. It does assume a trustworthy underlying medium, thus for the operation over Internet it requires the use of encryption layer underneath.
