Package github /asavie/xdp allows one to use XDP sockets from the Go programming language. With the default UDP payload size of 1400 bytes, running on Linux kernel 5.1.20, on a tg3 (so no native XDP support) gigabit NIC, sendudp does around 980 Mb/s, so practically line rate. TL;DR: in the same environment, sending a pre-generated DNS query using an ordinary UDP socket yield around 30 MiB/s whereas sending it using the senddnsqueries example program yields around 77 MiB/s. Connecting a PC with Intel Core i7-7700 CPU running Linux kernel 5.0.17 and igb driver to a laptop with Intel Core i7-5600U CPU running Linux kernel 5.0.9 with e1000e with a cat 5E gigabit ethernet cable.

netstack is a userspace TCP/IP networking stack written in Go that implements core IPv4/IPv6 protocols with a focus on correctness, isolation, and testability. By running entirely in user space, it avoids kernel dependencies and can be embedded into sandboxes, virtualized environments, or custom appliances. Its architecture models NICs, link endpoints, route tables, and protocol engines as composable interfaces, enabling precise control over packet flow and easy mocking in tests. The stack...
