    sched_ext schedulers and tools

  • Thanks for the vote of confidence! We agree, and have had a great time writing it. If you'd like to play around with it, take a look at https://github.com/sched-ext/scx. LWN wrote a nice article on this as well a while back: https://lwn.net/Articles/922405/.

  • ubpf

    Userspace eBPF VM

  • eBPF doesn't run in user space in the context of eBPF in the linux kernel. It's verified so that the kernel can be sure it won't loop forever and then gets JIT'ed and run in kernel space.

    There are some user space BPF vms like https://github.com/iovisor/ubpf and Solana.

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.
