    摘要: A network stack layer interface is provided for efficient communication between network stack layers. The network stack layer interface includes a header portion that defines various characteristics of the network stack layer interface. In addition, a buffer descriptor is included that defines data that was, or will be, transmitted over the computer network. The buffer descriptor includes a memory address pointer to the data. In this manner, information is passed between network stack layers via the network stack interface, resulting in fast network data transfer with reduced data copying.

    摘要翻译: 提供网络堆叠层接口用于网络堆叠层之间的有效通信。 网络堆栈层接口包括一个头部部分,它定义了网络堆叠层接口的各种特性。 另外还包括定义已经或将要通过计算机网络传输的数据的缓冲区描述符。 缓冲描述符包括一个指向数据的存储器地址指针。 以这种方式,信息通过网络堆栈接口在网络堆叠层之间传递,导致快速的网络数据传输,减少数据复制。
