Provided are a method, system, and program for managing memory options for a device such as an I/O device. Private addresses provided by logic blocks within the device may be transparently routed to either an optional external memory or to system memory, depending upon which of the optional memories the private address has been mapped.

A method and system for transmitting packets. Packets may be transmitted when a protocol control block is copied from a host processing system to a network protocol offload engine. Message information that contains packet payload addresses may be provided to the network protocol offload engine to generate a plurality of message contexts in the offload engine. With the message contexts, protocol processing may be performed at the offload engine while leaving the packet payload in the host memory. Thus, packet payloads may be transmitted directly from the host memory to a network communication link during transmission of the packets by the offload engine. Other embodiments are also described.

Provided are a method, system, and program for caching a virtualized data structure table. In one embodiment, an input/output (I/O) device has a cache subsystem for a data structure table which has been virtualized. As a consequence, the data structure table cache may be addressed using a virtual address or index. For example, a network adapter may maintain an address translation and protection table (TPT) which has virtually contiguous data structures but not necessarily physically contiguous data structures in system memory. TPT entries may be stored in a cache and addressed using a virtual address or index. Mapping tables may be stored in the cache as well and addressed using a virtual address or index.
摘要:
Certain aspects of the present invention provide a method and system for light-weight simple object access protocol (SOAP) transport for web services based management. Aspects of a method may include managing a system using a simple object access protocol (SOAP) message that is mapped over one or both of: a remote management and control protocol (RMCP) and a RMCP security extensions protocol (RSP) to enable remote management of systems using Web services in out-of-band (OOB) management devices.

A network controller in a communication device may be operable to provide pass-through communication of local host-management traffic between a local host and a management controller within the communication device, wherein the local host may be operable to utilize its network processing resources during communication of the local host-management traffic. The network controller may use packet filtering to provide the pass-through communication, wherein the network controller may utilize a plurality filtering rules during filtering of packets received in the network controller. The filtering rules may specify packet processing and/or forwarding actions by said network controller based on one or more specified conditions. The specified conditions may based on one or more match criteria; wherein the match criteria comprising source address, destination address, and/or traffic type data in the received packets. Address learning mechanisms may be used in the network controller to enable configuring and/or performing packet filtering transparently.

A system for open virtualization format includes a virtualization platform to run a virtual machine and a network infrastructure to accommodate the virtualization platform. The network infrastructure includes a deployed network port profile associated with the virtual machine.
摘要:
A management controller in a network device may support performing management operations based on management traffic communicated wirelessly via a wireless network controller of the network devices. The management controller may perform the management operations and/or to support wireless communication of the management traffic independent of operations of the network device. The management controller may be integrated into a network controller in the network device. The management traffic may comprise out-of-band (OOB) management related traffic. A direct interface may be established between the management controller and the wireless network controller, to support direct sideband communication between the management controller and the wireless network controller. The sideband interface may incorporate Network Controller Sideband Interface (NC-SI) and/or Secure Digital Input Output (SDIO) interface. The management controller may control operations of the wireless network controller, by utilizing an embedded wireless controller driver.
摘要:
Methods, apparatuses, and systems for grouping digital media items based on shared features. Multiple digital images are received. Metadata about the digital images is obtained either by analyzing the digital images or by receiving metadata from a source separate from the digital images or both. The obtained metadata is analyzed by data processing apparatus to identify a common feature among two or more of the digital images. A grouping of the two or more images is formed by the data processing apparatus based on the identified common feature.
摘要:
A local manager in a local networking domain may configure a plurality of logical switches by combining switching functions available in network devices and/or network switches in the local networking domain. The configuration may utilize vertical and/or horizontal combinations of the switching functions. The switching functions may comprise network switch-based switching functions, and/or hypervisor-level switching functions and/or network adapter-level switching functions available in network devices which may be configured as virtualized platforms. The local manager may provide interfacing services to enable exposing configured logical switches. The interfacing services may comprise an internal interface, which may be utilized, via the local manager, to control the switching functions corresponding to logical switches and/or to route messages sent to and/or from the logical switches. The interfacing services may also comprise an external interface, which may be used by external entities, such as remote management entities, to manage and/or interact with configured logical switches.
