environment for services, enabling them to be easily offloaded and ported between hosts and DPUs. The feature includes a process-level seamless offload function and a cross-host and -DPU collaboration framework Once offloaded, these processes can continue managing processes on the host side. The DPUDirect feature significantly reduces service offloading costs in DPU scenarios, simplifies O&M, and significantly can construct a working directory for the service process on the host, providing a unified cross-node file system view. • epoll collaboration supports epoll operations for cross-host access of remote
