Abstract
Techniques are disclosed for a smart network interface card (smartNIC) performing a unified logging process. In one example, an accelerator transmits a packet to a programming data plane of the smart network interface card. The programming data plane determines whether the packet is to be forwarded. In accordance with a determination that the packet is not be forwarded, the programming data plane modifies the packet to include an instruction that instructs the accelerator to log the packet and to not forward the packet. The programming data plane transmits the modified packet to the accelerator. The accelerator logs data associated with the modified packet to a unified log based at least in part on the instruction.
