Hello folks,

I am a graduate student at Univ of Texas at Dallas. For the Google
Summer of code, I am very much interested in improving netfilter
implementation on Linux. I have worked with iptables (as user) and
Linux kernel (as developer) earlier. Hence, although I do not know how
exactly I can improve the netfilter performance as of now, I think I
am in good position to understand and propose a solution to the
problem during the project.

I am composing a proposal for this project to be submitted at Google
SoC. Could anyone brief me about what you mean by "dynamic code
generation" (https://www.linuxfoundation.org/en/Google_Summer_of_Code_2009#Optimized_netfilter_implementation).
It would be great if you could point me to some document/repository
path which talks about this.

Submitting a proposal requires me to introduce myself on this mailing
list. For details about me, please refer to my resume :
http://utdallas.edu/~shreyas.bhatewara/ResumeShreyasBhatewara.pdf ). I
have been working on Linux/Solaris kernels, C, C++  professionally and
academically for some time now.

Thanking you.
