Abstract: A network adapter includes a network interface, a bus interface, a hardware-implemented data-path and a programmable Data-Plane Accelerator (DPA). The network interface is to communicate with a network. The bus interface is to communicate with an external device over a peripheral bus. The hardware-implemented data-path includes a plurality of packet-processing engines to process data units exchanged between the network and the external device. The DPA is to expose on the peripheral bus a User-Defined Peripheral-bus Device (UDPD), to run user-programmable logic that implements the UDPD, and to process transactions issued from the external device to the UDPD by reusing one or more of the packet-processing engines of the data-path.

Abstract: A system includes a bus interface and circuitry. The bus interface is configured to communicate with an external device over a peripheral bus. The circuitry is configured to support a plurality of widgets that perform primitive operations used in implementing peripheral-bus devices, to receive a user-defined configuration, which specifies a user-defined peripheral-bus device as a configuration of one or more of the widgets, and to implement the user-defined peripheral-bus device toward the external device over the peripheral bus, in accordance with the user-defined configuration.

Abstract: A peripheral device includes a host interface and processing circuitry. The host interface is to communicate with one or more hosts over a peripheral bus.
The processing circuitry is to expose on the peripheral bus a peripheral-bus device that communicates with the one or more hosts using one or more instances of at least one bus storage protocol, to receive, using the exposed peripheral-bus device, Input/Output (I/O) transactions that are issued by the one or more hosts, and to complete the I/O transactions for the one or more hosts in accordance with one or more instances of at least one network storage protocol, by running at least part of a host-side protocol stack of the at least one network storage protocol.
