    摘要: An apparatus and method for multicasting messages stored in data buffers of a data storage. Each message is composed of data stored in a plurality of the data buffers. Each data buffer is controlled and mapped to a unique direct control block (DCB) which stores information characterizing the data buffer. By chaining the DCBs variable length, messages can be generated. Indirect control blocks (ICB) stores information characterizing the data or messages duplicated and points to a DCB. A field in the DCB carries a count representing the number of times the message is to be duplicated.

    摘要: A method of operating a packet parser in a computing system includes providing a configurable packet pointer by the packet parser, the packet pointer configured to index a configurable number of atomic parsing elements, the atomic parsing elements having a configurable size, in a data stream received by the computing system for extraction, wherein the indexed atomic parsing elements are non-contiguous in the data stream; and receiving the extracted indexed atomic parsing elements from the data stream by the packet parser.

    摘要: Systems and methods for implementing multi-frame control blocks in a network processor are disclosed. Embodiments include systems and methods to reduce long latency memory access to less expensive memory such as DRAM. As a network processor in a network receives packets of data, the network processor forms a frame control block for each packet. The frame control block contains a pointer to a memory location where the packet data is stored, and is thereby associated with the packet. The network processor associates a plurality of frame control blocks together in a table control block that is stored in a control store. Each table control block comprises a pointer to a memory location of a next table control block in a chain of table control blocks. Because frame control blocks are stored and accessed in table control blocks, less frequent memory accesses may be needed to keep up with the frame rate of packet transmission.
