P4-Days: Programmable Data-Plane Execution in a Multicore Discrete-Event Network Simulator

Packet-level simulation of P4-programmable networks is expensive because a software P4 pipeline must be interpreted for every packet at every programmable hop. Existing integration through P4sim provides realistic BMv2 execution inside ns-3, but ns-3 uses a sequential event core....
