    摘要: Embodiments provide bus synchronization system including a source module, a plurality of destination modules, and a data alignment controller. The source module is configured to synchronize a plurality of data segments of a data bus with a source clock signal, and transmit respective synchronized data segments to individual destination modules. The source module is further configured to transmit the source clock signal to the destination modules contemporaneously with the synchronized data segments. The source module thereafter receives feedback clock signals from the individual destination modules, the feedback clock signals being delayed versions of the source clock signal. The data alignment controller adjusts an output delay time for the individual destination modules, based on the received feedback clock signals, to temporally align output signals of the destination modules.

    摘要: A method to reduce the rate of interrupts by the central processing unit (CPU) without any loss of interrupts. The method uses two parameters. The first parameter sets the event threshold, which is the maximum value of consecutive events allowed to occur, for example, the maximum number of received data packets before an interrupt is posted (for example, a receive interrupt) to the CPU. The second parameter sets the event time-out, which is the maximum time an event can be pending before posting an interrupt to the CPU. The second parameter is needed since the flow of events in the system is unpredictable and without the time-out limit handling of the event can be delayed indefinitely.

    摘要: Methods, apparatus and systems for implementing run-time fabric reconfiguration are described herein. In accordance with one aspect, techniques are disclosed for implementing run-time fabric reconfiguration on a System on a Chip (SoC) via use of multiple endpoint fabric interfaces having routing logic that is dynamically reconfigured at run-time by a fabric control unit in response to system-state changes. The endpoint fabric interfaces may be coupled to or integrated in IP blocks that are coupled to a switch fabric, or may be implemented in the switch fabric itself. The run-time fabric reconfiguration techniques may be implemented to for various purposes and/or to address various events, such as node failures, security events, IP or design bugs, feature prototyping, and virtualization.

    摘要: A method and system may provide power consumption reduction by a network device. A device on a network and its components each may capable of operating in a low-power state and a high power state. The device may include a host to run an application and a network controller to interface with the network. The network controller may include a host interface logic to interface with host, a micro-engine or other logic to process network maintenance data packets, and a filter to classify data packets. The filter may classify a received data packet having an associated data type and an associated destination by data type and destination. The data packet may be sent to the micro-engine if the data type and destination of the packet may be processed by the micro-engine.

    摘要: Generally, this disclosure describes techniques for buffer management based on link status. A host platform may include a Baseboard Management Controller (BMC) and a network controller that includes a buffer used by the BMC. When a network controller is in a lower power link state, the BMC may attempt to send data to the link partner which causes the network controller to transition out of the low power state. However, this transition may take longer than the buffer's ability to buffer the incoming flow from the BMC. Accordingly, to avoid the need for larger buffer space, a buffer manager is used to provide flow control management of the buffer based on link status.
