摘要： Access arbiters are used to prioritize read and write access requests to individual memory banks in DRAM memory devices, particularly fast cycle DRAMs. This serves to optimize the memory bandwidth available for the read and the write operations by avoiding consecutive accesses to the same memory bank and by minimizing dead cycles. The arbiter first divides DRAM accesses into write accesses and read accesses. The access requests are divided into accesses per memory bank with a threshold limit imposed on the number of accesses to each memory bank. The write receive packets are rotated among the banks based on the write queue status. The status of the write queue for each memory bank may also be used for system flow control. The arbiter also typically includes the ability to determine access windows based on the status of the command queues, and to perform arbitration on each access window.

摘要： A method and structure is provided for buffering data packets having a header and a remainder in a network processor system. The network processor system has a processor on a chip and at least one buffer on the chip. Each buffer on the chip is configured to buffer the header of the packets in a preselected order before execution in the processor, and the remainder of the packet is stored in an external buffer apart from the chip. The method comprises utilizing the header information to identify the location and extent of the remainder of the packet. The entire selected packet is stored in the external buffer when the buffer of the stored header of the given packet is full, and moving only the header of a selected packet stored in the external buffer to the buffer on the chip when the buffer on the chip has space therefor.

摘要： A method and structure are disclosed for dispatching appropriate data to a network processing system comprising an improved technique for extracting protocol header fields for use by the network processor. This technique includes basic classification of a packet according to the types of protocol headers present in the packet. Based on the results of the classification, specific parameter fields are extracted from corresponding headers. All such parameter fields from one or more protocol headers in the packet are concatenated into a compressed dispatch message. Multiples of such dispatch messages are bundled into a single composite dispatch message. Thus, selected header fields from N packets are passed to the network processor in a single composite dispatch message, increasing the network processor's packet forwarding capacity by a factor of N. Likewise, multiple enqueue messages are bundled into a single composite enqueue message to direct enqueue and frame alterations to be taken on the bundle of N packets.

摘要： A pipeline configuration is described for use in network traffic management for the hardware scheduling of events arranged in a hierarchical linkage. The configuration reduces costs by minimizing the use of external SRAM memory devices. This results in some external memory devices being shared by different types of control blocks, such as flow queue control blocks, frame control blocks and hierarchy control blocks. Both SRAM and DRAM memory devices are used, depending on the content of the control block (Read-Modify-Write or ‘read’ only) at enqueue and dequeue, or Read-Modify-Write solely at dequeue. The scheduler utilizes time-based calendars and weighted fair queueing calendars in the egress calendar design. Control blocks that are accessed infrequently are stored in DRAM memory while those accessed frequently are stored in SRAM.

摘要： A method and apparatus are used for finding the longest prefix match in a variable length prefix search when searching a direct table within a routing table structure of a network processor. The search through the routing table structure is expedited by hashing a first segment of an internet protocol address with a virtual private network number followed by concatenating the unhashed bits of the IP address to the result of the hash operation to form an input key. Patterns are compared a bit at a time until an exact match or the best match is found. The search is conducted in a search tree that provides that the matching results will be the best possible match.

摘要： A method and system for messaging between processors and co-processors connected through a bus. The method permits a multi-thread system processor to request the services of a processor or co-processor located on the bus. Message control blocks are stored in a memory which identify the physical address of the target processor, as well as a memory location in the memory dedicated to the thread requesting the service. When the system processor requests service of a processor or co-processor, a DCR command is created pointing to the message control block. A message is built from information contained in the message control block or transferred to the processor or co-processor. The return address for the processor or co-processor message is concatenated with the thread number, so that the processor or co-processor can create a return message specifically identifying memory space dedicated to the requesting thread for storage of the response message.

摘要： A prefetch mechanism using prefetch attributes is disclosed. In one aspect, an explicit request for data stored in a memory is provided, and a prefetch attribute in a page table entry associated with the explicit request is examined to determine whether to provide one or more prefetch requests based on the prefetch attribute. Another aspect includes determining dynamic prefetch attributes for use in prefetching data, in which prefetch attributes are adjusted based on memory access requests that target next sequential blocks of memory relative to the most recent previous access in a page of memory.

摘要： A low power DSL modem transmitter, suitable for incorporation in integrated DSLAM server line cards, transmits full power physical frames which include a control channel and a data field when data is available for transmission and physical frames having only a control channel or a control channel and a low power synchronization field when data is not available for transmission. And a method for controlling the total power dissipated in the integrated DSLAM by selectively restricting the flow of data packets to the DSLs.

摘要： A method, computer program product and system for facilitating inter-digital signal processing (DSP) data communications. A direct memory access (DMA) controller may be configured to facilitate transfers of data between a first and a second DSP processor core coupled to the DMA controller. The DMA controller may read a data structure, referred to as a “buffer descriptor block,” to perform the data transfer. The buffer descriptor block may store both a source address and a destination address indicating where the data is to be retrieved and stored. The buffer descriptor block may further store a value, e.g., number of bytes, indicating a size of the data to be transferred. The DMA controller may then transfer the data located at the source address in the first DSP processor core, with a size, e.g., number of bytes, indicated from the buffer descriptor block, to the destination address in the second DSP processor core.
