- Integrates a TCP/IP protocol stack into xv6-riscv OS for network capabilities.
- Key components include a kernel-space TCP/IP stack (microps), virtio-net driver, socket API, and network configuration via ifconfig.
- Setup involves cloning the repository, running QEMU, and configuring network settings.
- Network communication is verified using ping between host and guest.
- Includes sample applications (tcpecho, udpecho) to demonstrate network stack functionality.
- Testing involves running tcpecho in xv6 and connecting via netcat from the host.
