I saw those links when i was searching yesterday. &nbsp;Nothing seems to be very detailed. There are overviews out there but nothing more. &nbsp;I am not looking to have the code handed to me, but just a little more detail.

I have been asked to research some methods of implementing kernel bypass for network communications for our Linux application.  Is anyone familiar with this or has information to sites that could help me out with this information?  Any resources you could point me to would be great.  I am using RHEL5.

Linux Kernel Bypass for Network comms

A Linux distribution is an operating system made as a software collection based on the Linux kernel and, often, on a package management system and are available for a variety of systems. A typical Linux distribution comprises a Linux kernel, GNU tools and libraries, additional software, documentation, a window system (the most common being the X Window System), a window manager, and a desktop environment. Most Linux systems are open-source software made available both as compiled binaries and in source code form, allowing modifications to the original software. Over three hundred distributions are in active development, including commercially backed distributions (such as Fedora, openSUSE and Ubuntu) and community-driven distributions (such as Debian, Slackware, Gentoo and Arch Linux).

Linux Distributions

The variety of Linux distributions creates myriad issues relating to configuration and operations when computers are networked, not the least of which is the use of various network management applications, some of which are included with specific distributions, while others are standalone applications.
