Abstract: A system includes a data processing unit (DPU) and DPU resource management circuits. A DPU resource management circuit establishes an interface associated with managing resources of the DPU, where establishing the interface is based on another DPU resource management circuit of the system accessing the DPU. The DPU resource management circuit monitors usage of the resources of the DPU based on auditing data provided by the second DPU resource management circuit. In some cases, the DPU resource management circuit may allocate resources of the DPU to an application. The DPU resource management circuit generates a catalog data structure of the resources of the DPU. The catalog data structure includes entries corresponding to resources of the DPU and functions provided by the resources.

Abstract: A network adapter includes a network port for communicating with a communication network, a hardware clock, and circuitry. The circuitry is coupled to receive from the communication network, via the network port, one or more time-protocol packets that convey a network time used for synchronizing network devices in the communication network, to align the hardware clock to the network time conveyed in the time-protocol packets, and to make the network time available to one or more time-service consumers running in a host served by the network adapter.
