Network & K8s.02-2 The Packet's Way Through
What the Linux kernel does to a packet between the door and the socket, measured on an Ubuntu VM — counting the five Netfilter hooks, reading one conntrack entry and its state changes, DNAT to a Service-like address with kube-proxy’s random rule, MASQUERADE out of a namespace, a node as a router, an external SYN meeting 0.0.0.0 vs 127.0.0.1, and where eBPF plugs in.
