    摘要: A data processing system includes a main storage, an input/output memory management unit (IOMMU) coupled to the main storage, a peripheral component interconnect (PCI) device coupled to the IOMMU, and a mapper. The system is configured to allocate an amount of physical memory in the main storage and the IOMMU is configured to provide access to the main storage and to map a PCI address from the PCI device to a physical memory address within the main storage. The mapper is configured to perform a mapping between the allocated amount of physical memory of the main storage and a contiguous PCI address space. The IOMMU is further configured to translate PCI addresses of the contiguous PCI address space to the physical memory address within the main storage.

    摘要: A system and method for multicore processing of communications between data processing devices are provided. With the mechanisms of the illustrative embodiments, a set of techniques that enables sustaining media speed by distributing transmit and receive-side processing over multiple processing cores is provided. In addition, these techniques also enable designing multi-threaded network interface controller (NIC) hardware that efficiently hides the latency of direct memory access (DMA) operations associated with data packet transfers over an input/output (I/O) bus. Multiple processing cores may operate concurrently using separate instances of a communication protocol stack and device drivers to process data packets for transmission with separate hardware implemented send queue managers in a network adapter processing these data packets for transmission. Multiple hardware receive packet processors in the network adapter may be used, along with a flow classification engine, to route received data packets to appropriate receive queues and processing cores for processing.

    摘要: In a computer system, an I/O adapter comprises at least one I/O request mailbox for receiving I/O requests and data from a CPU. The mailbox is connected to at least one I/O request queue storage for storing a plurality of I/O requests and related data or main memory addresses received by the mailbox. A credit register is provided for storing the filling state of the queue storage. A connection network is designed and operated to transfer the contents of the credit register to the CPU for checking the filling state of the queue storage, to transfer an I/O request and related data to a queue of a selected request mailbox, and to activate a doorbell apparatus for signalling to the I/O adapter to process the I/O request including an access to the main memory by the I/O adapter if required.
