[Phase @phase_]

Phase Delegation's website is now live.

This affects both new prospective validators and current program members.

More details below.

Since DoubleZero Edge launched on April 16th, validators publishing shreds have been accumulating earnings.

And today, those validators are getting paid. Real rewards, in the form of real rev-share, from real network participation.

@Solana validator Edge publishers: here's how to claim ↓

@doublezero Would like to use it for our dashboards at https://t.co/n7KnamoelD and https://t.co/3kHhmChXu6

@solblaze_org Let’s glow together!

@alessandrod @uriklarman Is this Dashboard public?

[Valid Blocks IBRL/acc @ValidBlocks]

@solblaze_org @solana @toly @TimGarcia0 @Ashwinningg @steviez_sol @jacobvcreech @TheWattenhofer @bw_solana @jed @anza_xyz Well done! Very good initiative

[Alessandro Decina @alessandrod]

193 nodes on testnet have XDP on now.

Retransmit time plummeting. Once we're done, retransmit will settle at ~400 microseconds.

We finish testnet, then we do mainnet, then we finally do 100M CUs.

XDP + zero copy enabled for Valid Blocks validator! 🔥

[Anza @anza_xyz]

Agave 4.0 is now recommended for mainnet validators. Here are the most important updates:
- XDP for Turbine (retransmit 600ms → ~0.8ms)
- Faster replay stage with async verification
- P-Token and Stake Program v5 activation

@jito_sol Finally!! 💥

Light/dark mode switch now available for our dashboards. See https://t.co/MqAvoqMnWj

[ax @ax_1000x]

hey validators,

lets make solana faster by enabling xdp.

xdp improves turbine packet handling by cutting packet overhead, copies and context switches. more shred propagation headroom = better validator performance under load and more room for solana to scale.

add:
--experimental-poh-pinned-cpu-core <core> \
--experimental-retransmit-xdp-cpu-cores <core> \
--experimental-retransmit-xdp-zero-copy

bnxt_en:
--experimental-poh-pinned-cpu-core <core> \
--experimental-retransmit-xdp-cpu-cores <core> \
--experimental-retransmit-xdp-interface <physical_interface> \

extend your systemd service:
AmbientCapabilities=CAP_NET_RAW CAP_NET_ADMIN CAP_BPF CAP_PERFMON
CapabilityBoundingSet=CAP_NET_RAW CAP_NET_ADMIN CAP_BPF CAP_PERFMON
LimitMEMLOCK=2000000000

notes:
- dont run poh and xdp on the same physical core
- keep poh away from the xdp cores shared L3 / numa domain
- validate your actual topology with lscpu -e/hwloc or solanahcl/solanahcl/blob/main/public/topology/

easy rule of thumb:
- 7965wx: 24c across 4x ccds -> 6 cores/ccd first ccd: 0–5c, next ccd starts at 6c
- 9375f: 32c across 8x ccds -> 4 cores/ccd first ccd: 0–3c, next ccd starts at 4c

common xdp-capable drivers:
i40e, ixgbe, ice, igc,
mlx5_core, mlx4_core,
bnxt_en

dont use bonded interface with xdp.

for broadcom / bnxt_en: dont enable zero-copy. copy mode is the safe path.

if you run into "huge page alloc failed", remove the zero-copy flag and set the xdp interface to the physical interface:

--experimental-retransmit-xdp-interface <physical_interface>

check the ring sizes: it needs to be power of 2

IFACE=$(ip route get 1.1.1.1 | awk '{for(i=1;i<=NF;i++) if($i=="dev") print $(i+1)}')
sudo ethtool -g "$IFACE"
# if you see values like rx: 511 or tx: 511, thats likely the issue.
sudo ethtool -G "$IFACE" rx 512 tx 512

restart and voila, you are not a potato anymore.
