Developed an eBPF-powered DHCP server for pods within the deckhouse/deckhouse repository, integrating it with Cilium to automate IP provisioning and network configuration in Kubernetes environments. Leveraged C and Go to implement BPF code that processes DHCP requests and responses directly in kernel space, enabling customizable defaults for cluster DNS and domain search lists. This approach improved pod networking reliability and reduced manual configuration by automating IP assignment, resulting in faster pod startup and more consistent DNS settings across the cluster. The work demonstrated expertise in eBPF, Cilium integration, and Kubernetes networking, with QA validation confirming correctness and stability of the feature.
Month: 2024-11 — Key feature delivered: eBPF-powered DHCP server for pods integrated with Cilium. It provisions IPs and network config for pods by adding BPF code to handle DHCP requests/responses and exposes configuration options to enable and customize DHCP (e.g., cluster DNS and domain search lists). Major bugs fixed: none reported this month; QA validated the new DHCP server's correctness and stability. Overall impact: improves pod networking reliability and reduces manual config by automating IP provisioning, enabling faster pod startup in dynamic environments and more consistent DNS settings cluster-wide. Technologies demonstrated: eBPF-based networking, kernel-space programming, Cilium integration, DHCP protocol handling, and Kubernetes networking.
