    摘要: A copy engine (104) is provided as an interface between firmware (108) and memory space (106) for carrying out copy operations. The copy engine has a first register (202, 203) to point to a first address and a second register (204, 205) to point to a second address. One of the first and second addresses is a source address and one is a destination address for data to be copied. The copy engine (104) also has a control register (201). The control register (201) includes a count of the amount of memory space required by a copy operation, an indication of the direction of the copy operation from the first address to the second address or from the second address to the first address, and an indication of whether the first memory address is incremented or decremented. The copy engine (104) includes a locking mechanism for locking the copy engine (104) during a copy operation. The copy engine (104) also includes a serialisation mechanism in which a write is made to the control register (201) of zero count. If the copy engine (104) is locked, the write of zero count is retried until the existing copy operation has completed and then it will complete with no effect.

The loop network (500) has a plurality of ports (520, 530, 532, 534) serially connected with means for bypassing the ports (520, 530, 532, 534) from the loop network (500). A control device (522, 524) is provided with bypass control over at least one of the ports (530, 532, 534). A host means (502) sends a command to the control device (522, 524) at regular intervals and the control device (522, 524) has a counter which restarts a time period at the receipt of each command. If the time period expires, the control device (522, 524) activates the means for bypassing all the ports (530, 532, 534) under its control. The loop network (500) may have two loops (516, 518) with at least some of the ports (520, 530, 532, 534) common to both loops (516, 518).

    摘要: A method and apparatus for recovery from faults in a loop network (400) is provided. The loop network (400) has a host means (402), a first loop and a second loop (406, 408), a plurality of ports (410) connected to each of the loops (406, 408) and a control device (414, 440) on or connected to each loop (406, 408) with bypass control over at least one of the ports (410) connected to the loop (406, 408). In the event of a failure on the first loop (406), the host means (402) instructs the bypassing of at least one port (410) on the first loop (406), the host means (402) sending the instructions via the control device (414, 440) on or connected to the second loop (408). The host means (402) may determine the physical topology of the ports (410) on the first and second loops (406, 408) such that when a failure is reported to the host means (402) by a port (432) on the first loop (406), the host means (402) instructs the bypassing of a port (434) in a specific relationship to the reporting port (432) on the first loop (434). The host means (402) may instruct the bypassing of all ports (416) on the first loop (406) and subsequently selectively un-bypass ports (416) to ascertain the location of a faulty port or ports.

    摘要: A method and apparatus are provided for fault location in a loop network (100, 200, 400). The network system having a host port (214) for supplying and receiving data and a plurality of successively connected ports (201, 202, 203, 204, 205) through which data from the host port (214) is transferred. A counter (122) for each port records data transfers in which the amount of data received at a destination port is less than an expected amount of data. When a transfer with less than the expected amount of data is identified for a data flow between a sending port (201) and a destination port (214), the counters are incremented for each port (202, 203, 204, 205, 214) after the sending port up to and including the destination port. Analysing means determines a fault location in the network system from the distribution of counts in the counters (122).
