A poptrie is a data structure and set of algorithms for performing longest prefix match of an IP address over a set of IP prefixes. Its primary use is implementing routing tables.
Poptrie was created by Asai and Ohara in:
Asai, Hirochika, and Yasuhiro Ohara. "Poptrie: A compressed trie with population count for fast and scalable software IP routing table lookup." ACM SIGCOMM Computer Communication Review 45.4 (2015): 57-70.
This is a dependency free no_std
implementation to facilitate use in OS
kernels.
This is a work in progress implementation.
