I am mostly interested in scalability and real-time behavior of the Linux kernel. A kernel tracer is a key aspect that must be added to Linux in order to improve these aspects. The path towards this involves contribution of new pieces of core infrastructure in the kernel itself so it can support a low-overhead, low-disturbance tracer.

Ondřej Surý (https://isc.org) presented how he leverages the RCU, lock-free queues, and RCU lock-free hash table APIs from https://liburcu.org to improve the performance and response time of the BIND 9 DNS (https://www.isc.org/bind/). He describes the improvements and results in his #fosdem 2025 talk "How to make BIND 9 fast(er)" https://fosdem.org/2025/schedule/event/fosdem-2025-4626-how-to-make-bind-9-fast-er-/
