摘要:
A method of selective direct memory access (DMA) in a computer system having a network interface card (NIC), a processor subsystem, and a memory accessible to the subsystem, including the steps of the NIC receiving a plurality of packets from an external source; the NIC decoding a portion of each packet and determining whether the packet should be accepted by the computer system based on a predefined rule; and if the packet is accepted, selectively truncating the packet based on the predefined rule, and storing the truncated packet in the memory.

摘要:
Network devices, systems and methods are described that configure a network device user interface. One method includes receiving input to define user-selectable information from among a list of pre-arranged network information presented on a network device display. The method includes configuring the user-selectable information into a particular grouping and presenting the user-selectable information according to the particular grouping.
摘要:
A method of stressing a network device includes sending an echo request having a payload to the network device. The payload is configured to stress the network device. The method also includes determining whether the network device is healthy despite receiving the payload.
摘要:
Embodiments of the present invention relate to the filling of cache memory for cache memory initialization. In one embodiment, cache architecture dependent data is loaded into cacheable memory. The flow of initialization execution is transferred to the cache architecture dependent data in response to a trigger that indicates that an initialization of cache memory has been initiated. Each line contained in cache memory is filled using the cache architecture dependent data. The flow of initialization execution is returned back to the place in the initialization process from which it was transferred when the filling of cache memory is completed.
