    Abstract: Examples include a computing system having a direct memory access (DMA) engine pipeline, a plurality of processing cores, each processing core including a core pipeline, and a memory coupled to the DMA engine pipeline and the plurality of processing cores. The computing system includes a pipeline selector coupled to the plurality of processing cores and the DMA engine pipeline, the pipeline selector to, during initialization, determine at least one threshold for pipeline selection for the computing system, and during runtime, select one of the core pipelines or the DMA engine pipeline to execute a memory copy operation in the memory based at least in part on the at least one threshold.

    Abstract: A central processing unit can offload table lookup or tree traversal to an offload engine. The offload engine can provide hardware accelerated operations such as instruction queueing, bit masking, hashing functions, data comparisons, a results queue, and a progress tracking. The offload engine can be associated with a last level cache. In the case of a hash table lookup, the offload engine can apply a hashing function to a key to generate a signature, apply a comparator to compare signatures against the generated signature, retrieve a key associated with the signature, and apply the comparator to compare the key against the retrieved key. Accordingly, a data pointer associated with the key can be provided in the result queue. Acceleration of operations in tree traversal and tuple search can also occur.
