Jul 1, 2026July 2026 performance summary for DragonOS: Delivered critical improvements to memory management and a major evolution of the AF_PACKET networking stack, driving higher stability, performance, and Linux-compatibility in memory pressure scenarios and high-throughput networking deployments. Key outcomes include Linux-like OOM killer lifecycle semantics with direct reclaim and enhanced observability, plus a comprehensive AF_PACKET feature set with raw frame transmission, multicast management, and full socket option support, reinforced by extensive end-to-end testing. Notable deliverables and evidence: - OOM Killer Improvements and Memory Reclaim Observability: refactored victim lifecycle to align with Linux semantics; implemented direct reclaim for OOM victims; introduced procfs/vmstat observability; expanded fault-injection coverage and aligned oom_score behaviors. - AF_PACKET Socket Support and Enhancements: completed raw frame transmission (recvmsg/sendmsg), multicast membership management, and broad SOL_PACKET option support; drivers refactored to support raw transmission bypassing protocol stack; introduced classic BPF filter support and end-to-end tests across multiple drivers; added socket option testing programs. - Quality and stability improvements: added SO_RCVTIMEO support for AF_PACKET and corrected payload-length semantics for SOCK_DGRAM in AF_PACKET; expanded dunitest/c_unitest coverage; runtime AF_PACKET test results showed high pass rates (multiple tests passing, with regression coverage). Impact: Reduced memory-related outages under pressure, faster memory recovery, improved observability and testing coverage, and a Linux-like networking stack enabling better performance, compatibility, and reliability for DragonOS deployments. Technologies/skills demonstrated: Linux memory management concepts (OOM lifecycle, direct reclaim), procfs/vmstat observability, fault-injection testing, kernel network stack engineering, AF_PACKET, multicast, BPF integration, socket options (SO_ATTACH_FILTER, SO_RCVTIMEO), wait-queue and timer logic, RCU-safe data structures, end-to-end testing frameworks (dunitest/c_unitest).

Jun 1, 2026June 2026 performance summary for DragonOS: Delivered a major memory-management feature focused on the user-space page-fault OOM path, with strong emphasis on reliability, observability, and future-proofing for kernel memory pressure scenarios. The work centers on safe, retryable handling of VM_FAULT_OOM by selecting memory-heavy victims, signaling for reclaim progress, and retrying faults instead of entering a livelock. The feature was implemented with a robust OOM scoring mechanism, signal handling, and testing hooks, and is documented for maintainability and future extension.

Apr 1, 2026April 2026 DragonOS monthly summary: Implemented and stabilized mount namespace pivot_root support and namespace handling, with path rewrites and rebinding of root and cwd after namespace switches. Added comprehensive C unit tests for pivot_root behavior addressing synchronization issues in mount propagation and namespace copying. Fixed propagation synchronization and copy_mnt_ns alignment bugs, and expanded test coverage to validate shared mount rejection, namespace isolation, and dual pivot scenarios. Refactor: pivot_test moved to dunitest, improving test maintainability and automation. Overall, this work improves container isolation, reliability, and deployment safety, with broader test coverage and stronger resilience against namespace-related edge cases.
