摘要： A system for performing a lookup for a packet in a computer network are disclosed. The packet includes a header. The system includes a parser, a lookup engine coupled with the parser, and a processor coupled with the lookup engine. The parser parses the packet for the header prior to receipt of the packet being completed. The lookup engine performs a lookup for the header and returns a resultant. In one aspect, the lookup includes performing a local lookup of a cache that includes resultants of previous lookups. The processor processes the resultant.

摘要： Method and apparatus for providing a checksum in a network transmission. In one aspect of the invention, a checksum for a packet to be transmitted on a network is determined by retrieving packet information from a storage device, the packet information to be included in the packet to be transmitted. A blind checksum value is determined based on the retrieved packet information, and the blind checksum value is adjusted to a protocol checksum based on descriptor information describing the structure of the packet. The protocol checksum is inserted in the packet before the packet is transmitted.

摘要： A method and system for performing a pattern match search for a data string having a plurality of characters separated by delimiters. In accordance with the method of the present invention a search key is constructed by generating a full match search increment comprising the binary representation of a data string element, wherein the data string element comprises all characters between a pair of delimiters. The search key is completed by concatenating a pattern search prefix to the full match search increment, wherein the pattern search prefix is a cumulative pattern search result of each previous full match search increment. A full match search is then performed within a lookup table utilizing the search key. In response to finding a matching pattern within the lookup table, the process returns to constructing a next search key. In response to not finding a matching pattern, the previous full match search result is utilized to process the data string.

摘要： A method, computer program product and system for processing TCP/IP packets. A TCP protocol stack may store a payload of a received TCP/IP packet in a data fragment list. The TCP protocol stack may further read the header of the received packet to extract a value used to index into a table storing a list of transport control blocks (TCBs). The TCP protocol stack may further perform a lock and a read operation on the TCB indexed in the table. The TCP protocol stack may further transmit the payload to the TCP application without requiring the application to perform a lock, read, write or unlock operation on the indexed TCB since the TCP protocol stack and the TCP application are operating on the same thread. By the TCP application foregoing the lock, read, write and unlock operations on the TCB, there is a reduction in the number of memory accesses.

摘要： A method and system for performing network address translations for a session in a network is disclosed. The network includes at least one local network domain, and the at least one local network domain includes at least one computer system. Each computer system has a local address and is associated with a global address. The session exchanges packets that travel between the computer system within the local network domain and another computer system which may be outside of the local network domain. Each packet includes source and destination information. The method and system include determining a direction of travel for each packet, inbound or outbound, by searching a global address table for a match of a key for each packet. The key is provided using a portion of the destination information. The global address table includes at least one entry. Each entry corresponds to the global address for a first corresponding computer system. The method and system also include asymmetrically translating the source and destination information for each packet using an address translation table or session table based on whether or not the full match is found. The destination information is translated using information in the session table if the packet is inbound. The source information is translated based on the address translation table if the packet is outbound. The address translation table includes at least one entry. Each entry corresponds to the local address for a first corresponding computer system or a global host name for a shared host.

摘要： A timer management system and method for managing timers in both a synchronous and asynchronous system. In one embodiment of the present invention, a timer management system comprises an application program interface (API) for providing a set of synchronous functions allowing an application to functionally operate on the timer. The timer management system further comprises a timer database for storing timer-related information. Furthermore, the timer management system comprises a timer services for detecting the expiring of the timer. A handle function of the timer services allows an asynchronous application, i.e., application in a multi-task system, to synchronously act on the timer. That is, when a timer in a asynchronous system times-out, the handle function allows the asynchronous application to act on the expired timer without incurring an illegal time-out message. In another embodiment of the present invention, a timer may be reinitialized from the same allocated block of memory used to create the timer. In another embodiment of the present invention, a time-out message may be sent using the same allocated block of memory used to create the timer.
