    Abstract: A computing system can include a server computer and a configurable hardware platform. The server computer can include instances or domains such as a management partition and a user partition. The management partition can be used to perform management services for the user partitions and the configurable hardware platform. The configurable hardware platform is coupled to the server computer, and can include a host logic and a configurable application logic. In an embodiment, the computing system is configured to provide the user partition with physical or virtual access to a first part of the configurable hardware platform through the host logic in the configurable hardware platform. The computing system is also configured to provide the user partition with virtual access to certain portions/resources associated with the configurable hardware platform.

    Abstract: A server computer comprising an Input/Output (I/O) adapter device and a host device receives I/O requests for transactions from a client computer via a network. According to various embodiments, the host device can offload certain data processing for storing payload data for the transactions to the I/O adapter device. The I/O adapter device can perform data mirroring or data striping on the payload data and can send the mirrored or striped data for storing in the plurality of storage volumes. The plurality of storage volumes can include one or more remote storage volumes and/or one or more local storage volumes.

    Abstract: Server computers may include one or more input/output (I/O) adapter devices for communicating with a network and/or direct-attached device. The I/O adapter device may have limited physical resources, such as memory. Large I/O transactions may occupy all available memory on the I/O adapter device, thus causing other I/O transactions to experience intermittent and excessive delays. The I/O adapter device can be configured to issue one or more transactions for a large I/O request. Each transaction transfers a portion of the data requested by the large I/O request. When all the transactions have completed, the client that requested the large I/O request is informed that the I/O request has completed.

    Abstract: The following description is directed to a configurable logic platform. In one example, a configurable logic platform includes host logic and a reconfigurable logic region. The reconfigurable logic region can include logic blocks that are configurable to implement application logic. The host logic can be used for encapsulating the reconfigurable logic region. The host logic can include a host interface for communicating with a processor. The host logic can include a management function accessible via the host interface. The management function can be adapted to cause the reconfigurable logic region to be configured with the application logic in response to an authorized request from the host interface. The host logic can include a data path function accessible via the host interface. The data path function can include a layer for formatting data transfers between the host interface and the application logic.
