Multi-modal object Re-Identification (ReID) aims to retrieve specific objects by integrating complementary information from multiple modalities. However, existing multi-modal ReID methods do not effectively address background interference suppression or achieve tri-modal alignment, instead focusing on pairwise feature fusion. Moreover, many current aggregation approaches suffer from high computational complexity. To address these limitations, we propose PRISM, a novel multi-modal ReID framework built upon Prompt-S6 (PS6) and semantic-aware knowledge guidance. PS6 maintains the linear complexity and strong sequence modeling capability of Mamba while enabling efficient cross-modal interaction. Leveraging these advantages, we design two key components: Semantic-Driven Token Pruning (SDTP) and Progressive Fusion Network (PFN). Parsing semantic priors from the segmentation foundation models, the SDTP then leverages these priors and applies dynamic token pruning to suppress background noise and refine feature representations. The PFN progressively aggregates multi-modal features to achieve tri-modal alignment and fully exploit modality complementarity. With the proposed modules, PRISM generates more robust multi-modal representations under complex scenarios. Extensive experiments on four multi-modal object ReID benchmarks demonstrate the effectiveness and efficiency of our approach. The source code is available at https://github.com/zw-absin/PRISM.

eBPF lets developers extend Linux with custom packet processing, tracing, and scheduling logic, and a verifier proves before execution that the code will not crash the kernel. The programming model, however, is fragmented: a single application spans kernel code, a userspace loader, and shared maps, yet the relationships among these pieces go unchecked. E.g. A map or event type defined differently on each side silently corrupts shared state. We observe that these cross-boundary relationships duplicate information that a type system can unify. We present KernelScript, a DSL that types maps, program handles, and execution domains in one source, then compiles to standard C through the original toolchain. We evaluate KernelScript on 43 eBPF workloads covering XDP, TC, kprobe, tracepoint, and struct_ops. KernelScript rejects cross-boundary bugs at compile time that standard C/libbpf still builds and loads, a unified source shrinks the diffs for cross-boundary changes by 5x, and generated code remains compatible with the existing toolchain.
