    IPv6 longest-prefix-match (LPM).

    Clean-room, portable C++17 implementation of the PlanB IPv6 LPM algorithm.

    Includes: - AVX-512 SIMD path + scalar fallback - Wait-free lookups with rebuild-and-swap dynamic FIB - Benchmarks on synthetic data and real RIPE RIS BGP (~254K prefixes)

    Interesting result: on real BGP + uniform random lookups, a plain Patricia trie can sometimes match or beat the SIMD tree due to cache locality and early exits.

    Would love feedback, especially comparisons with PopTrie / CP-Trie.

      The obvious question, I guess: How much faster are you than whatever is in the Linux kernel's FIB? (Although I assume they need RCU overhead and such. I have no idea what it all looks like internally.)

      I wonder if this would port nicely over to rustybgp.

    I wonder how this would look like in risc-v vector instructions

    Why detect avx512 in build system instead of using #ifdef ?
