P4 Language-Based Description of Accelerated Device against DoS Attacks
Kuka, Mário ; Kekely, Lukáš (referee) ; Kučera, Jan (advisor)
This thesis describes the development of a networking device used to defend against (D)DoS attacks using P4 language. The main purpose was to design flexible device using P4 lan-guage based on already existing device, this would allow us to quickly react and respond to new more complex DDoS attacks. The design of the device dealt with the transfer of individual parts of the firmware into the P4 language. Subsequently, the entire device firmware was designed for hardware accelerators with FPGA technology. The firmware had been designed with respect to the limitations of current P4 language compilers. The device has been tested under laboratory conditions for functionality and performance. The device will be deployed in the network infrastructure of CESNET.

Control Flow Graph for P4 Programs
Ponek, Timotej ; Šišmiš, Lukáš (referee) ; Kekely, Lukáš (advisor)
Concept of SDN gradually became one of the most popular solutions for network management. It allows rapid reconfigurability of network devices, to reflect actual demands and to enable quick testing of new solutions, which supports overall advance in networking. This thesis focuses on P4 programming language, which is one of the implementations of SDN concept. The goal of this thesis is improvement of the existing open-source P4 compiler. More precisely, extension of a part used to generate control flow graphs. New implementation captures program flow even inside match-action tables and actions, which allows easier checking of compiler output and further optimization of compiler to reduce dead code. It also provides option to generate a fullgraph in dot format and a predefined json format that captures the flow of the program across all function blocks of the P4 program.

Marketing Mix of a Company On Semiconductor, a.s.
Majeriková, Ela ; Streda, Peter (referee) ; Novák, Petr (advisor)
This bachelor thesis is dedicated to the industrial marketing in comparison to the marketing on the customer markets. The theoretical part concentrates on the theory of marketing, marketing on B2B markets, the differences between consumer and industrial market and marketing mix on B2B markets. In analytical part, the company ON Semiconductor, a.s is introduced along with the marketing mix of SMART METER applications and macroeconomic analysis. On the bases of the results, the PEST and SWOT analysis are conducted. In the implementation part of the bachelor thesis I have drafted the possible solution of the weak points based on the SWOT analysis.

P4 cryptographic primitive support
Cíbik, Peter ; Malina, Lukáš (referee) ; Smékal, David (advisor)
This diploma thesis deals with the problem of high-speed communication security which leads to the usage of hardware accelerators, in this case high-speed FPGA NICs. Work with simplification of development of FPGA hardware accelerator applications using the P4 to VHDL compiler. Describes extension of compiler of cryptographic external objects support. Teoretical introduction of the thesis explains basics of P4 language and used technologies. Describes mapping of external objects to P4 pipeline and therefore to FPGA chip. Subsequently deals with cryptographic external object, compatible wrapper implementation and verification of design. Last part describes implementation and compiler extension, cryptographic external object support and summarizes reached goals.

Packet Parsing and Header Field Extraction in FPGA
Selecký, Roman ; Košař, Vlastimil (referee) ; Kořenek, Jan (advisor)
Network devices need to process packets and gather information from header fields. Packet parsers become outdated due to increasing number of protocols and frequent changes in their definitions. This thesis aims to create design of flexible and powerful packet parser. P4 language was designed to define packet processing. Flexible parsers can be constructed by combining potential of P4 with reconfigurable FPGA technology. Program mapping P4 language to designed architecture was implemented in order to promptly reflect changes in parser model.

P4.16 Compiler Using High Level Synthesis
Neruda, Jakub ; Kekely, Lukáš (referee) ; Martínek, Tomáš (advisor)
The P4 language is currently a hot topic in the field of network administration due to its capability to program the functionality of network devices. This language is still in development and its last revision P416 drastically changed not only the language features and syntax, but also the underlying compiler. The CESNET association supports the development of the P4 language and thus they also need to support the new standard. This work examines possible problems tied to migration, namely issues related to translation of high-level user-defined actions into VHDL description, with the help of High-level Synthesis (HLS), instantiation of so-called extern objects and the support of atomic sections. The text discusses possible ways of interconnecting the HDL components and organisation of their memory space in order to support configuration from software at runtime. The architecture of the p4c compiler is also described, complete with code examples implementing core classes participating in the compilation process. The last part of the work showcases the usage of Vivado HLS for optimizing C++ code in order to get maximum performance from the resulting firmware.

Network Traffic Monitoring Using the P4 Language
Patová, Pavlína ; Matoušek, Jiří (referee) ; Martínek, Tomáš (advisor)
Today we often encounter the need to monitor network and service quality. For this purpose we can use for example INT. Our goal is to find the optimal platform and associated compiler for implementing INT. We will try to find an alternative to the existing solutions (T4P4S, BMv2). However, we will also mention these two platforms and discuss their advantages and disadvantages. The result of this work is an overview of the capabilities of each compiler and the performance of the described implementations.

Hardware-Accelerated Cryptography For Software-Defined Networks
Cíbik, Peter
This paper presents a Software-Defined Network (SDN) cryptographic solution targetedon high-speed smart Network Interface Cards (NICs) with an FPGA chip. This solution providesa fast alternative method to develop network-oriented data processing cryptography applications foran accelerator. A high-level programming language – Programming Protocol-independent PacketProcessor (P4) – is used to avoid a complex and time-consuming hardware development. The solutionconsists of two main parts: a library of mainly used cryptographic primitives written in VHSICHardware Description Language (VHDL) i.e. a symmetric cipher (AES-GCM-256), a hash function(SHA-3), a SHA-3-based Hash-based Message Authentication Code (HMAC), a digital signaturescheme (EdDSA) and a post-quantum digital signature scheme (Dilithium), and a compiler P4/VHDLwith the support for these cryptographic components as external objects of P416.

Cryptographic Externs Support In P416/Vhdl Compiler For Fpga Board Target Platform
Cíbik, Peter
This paper deals with the problem of data security and secure communication at high speed, which leads to the usage of hardware accelerators, in this case high-speed FPGA NICs. It proposes an effective way how to develop applications for an FPGA-based acceleration platform. The compiler is produced by Netcope Technologies a. s. and is called Netcope P4. It allows development in high-level language P4. The key value of this product is compiler P4_16/VHDL, which compiles a P4 application source code and maps it on a target FPGA platform. The main goal of this paper is the extension of the compiler to support cryptographic external objects, which can be used in the design of applications using cryptographic features like a hash function over payload, encryption, etc. It describes design of pipeline with control block for external objects, interface of these control blocks and implementation steps.
