摘要： A multiple processor device generates a control packet for at least one connectionless-based packet in partial accordance with a control packet format of the connection-based point-to-point link and partially not in accordance with the control packet format. For instance, the multiple processor device generates the control packet to include, in noncompliance with the control packet format, one or more of an indication that at least one connectionless-based packet is being transported, an indication of a virtual channel of a plurality of virtual channels associated with the at least one connectionless-based packet, an indication of an amount of data included in the associated data packet, status of the at least one connectionless-based packet, and an error status indication. The multiple processor device then generates the associated data packet in accordance with a data packet format of the connection-based point-to-point link, wherein the data packet includes at least a portion of the at least one connectionless-based packet.

摘要： Smart routing between peers in a point-to-point link based system begins when a device of a plurality of devices in a point-to-point link interconnected system receives a packet from an upstream link or a downstream link. The processing continues when the device interprets the packet to determine a destination of the packet. If the device is the destination of the packet, the device accepts the packet. If, however, the device is not the destination of the packet, the device forwards the packet on another upstream link or another downstream link without alteration of at least one of: source information of the packet and destination information of the packet.

摘要： A system for servicing data transactions within a processing device using common data paths. The system is broadly comprised of: a plurality of source agents operable to transmit a plurality of data cells; a plurality of destination agents operable to of data cells; a plurality of virtual channels for transporting data cells between the source agents and the destination agents; and a switch. The switch is operable to connect predetermined combinations of the source agents and the destination agents for the transmission of data. The switch generates a plurality of switch processing cycles and processes a plurality of control signals during the switch processing cycles. The control signals processed during the switch processing cycles comprise: a source request signal corresponding to a source agent having a first data cell for transmission to a destination agent; an active state update signal designating the source agent as being active for the transmission of a first data cell; and a grant signal for the transfer of the first data cell from the source agent to a specified destination agent. In the method and apparatus of the present invention, a reload signal is generated during the same switch processing cycle as the grant signal, the reload signal indicates the availability of an additional data cell to transmission in a subsequent data cycle. Using the method and apparatus of the present invention, data is transmitted from a source agent to a destination during every other switch processing cycle, thereby resulting in a substantial increase in the efficiency of data transmission between source agents and destination agents.
