Kernel integration of GPU server requests explored for CPU savings

A technical exploration investigates whether relocating a GPU server's request loop into the Linux kernel can lead to CPU savings. The analysis focuses on the potential benefits of using eBPF (extended Berkeley Packet Filter) to achieve this kernel-level integration. The goal is to determine if this architectural shift offers performance improvements by reducing overhead. AI
