摘要： Novel data structures, methods and apparatus for a Software Managed Tree (SMT) which provides a mechanism to create tree structures that follow a search mechanism defined by a control point processor. The search mechanism does not require storage on the previous pointer and uses only a forward pointer along with a next bit or group of bits to test thereby reducing storage space for nodes. The search mechanism processes multiple filter rules for an application without requiring multiple searches and also allows various filter rules to be chained. Two patterns of the same length are stored in each leaf to define a range compare. A compare at the end operation is either a compare under range or a compare under mask. In a compare under range, the input key is checked to determine if it is in the range defined by the two patterns. In a compare under mask, the bits in the input key are compared with the bits in a first leaf pattern under a mask specified in a second leaf pattern.

摘要： A classification system includes a software managed tree testing bits from a key which labels an item. The bits are chosen by application of the Choice Bit Algorithm to the Rules in a Database of Rules. A controller including logic parses an unknown Key for bits to be tested in the decision nodes of a binary tree. Tests dictated by the tree are conducted in a predetermined way until all but one Rule from the database or all but a few Rules from the database are eliminated from consideration, whereupon the Key is fully tested by the one remaining Rule or in a lattice constructed of the remaining plurality of Rules, to determine an action to enforce on the item. Certain compare tests are used in the binary tree for the case that otherwise identical or similar rules are applied to integer ranges of key values which do not fall upon power of 2 boundaries. Furthermore, some very frequently occurring rules in such final tests might be designated as secondary rules, the remaining rules designated as primary rules, the entire decision tree recalculated using only primary rules, and the primary rules then connected to secondary rules only when logically necessary by means of a system of pointers making use of relative priorities of rules.

摘要： A method and system for performing a pattern match search for a data string having a plurality of characters separated by delimiters. In accordance with the method of the present invention a search key is constructed by generating a full match search increment comprising the binary representation of a data string element, wherein the data string element comprises all characters between a pair of delimiters. The search key is completed by concatenating a pattern search prefix to the full match search increment, wherein the pattern search prefix is a cumulative pattern search result of each previous full match search increment. A full match search is then performed within a lookup table utilizing the search key. In response to finding a matching pattern within the lookup table, the process returns to constructing a next search key. In response to not finding a matching pattern, the previous full match search result is utilized to process the data string.

摘要： A data flow control method and system within a data switch. The data switch includes a plurality of input sections each having an associated input buffer and each transmitting data to an output section. In response to a detection of congestion within the output section, data transmissions from the plurality of input sections to the output section are paused. Input buffer occupancies of each of the input sections are then determined. Thereafter, and in response to a backpressure relief signal, the restart of said data transmission from each of the input sections to the output section is delayed in inverse proportion to each of the determined input buffer occupancies.

摘要： A method and system for controlling pipes in a computer network is disclosed. The network includes processor(s) having a switch and a queue used for transmitting traffic through the switch. Minimum and maximum flows are set for each pipe. The queue level, any excess bandwidth and offered rate of packets are determined for the queue. A global transmit fraction is controlled using the queue level and offered rate so that the global transmit fraction and queue level are critically damped if the queue level is between certain levels. A transmit fraction for a flow is set to the minimum of the global and differential transmit fractions. The differential transmit fraction linearly increases the flow based on the minimum or maximum flow if excess bandwidth exists and the flow is less than the maximum and exponentially decreases the flow based on the minimum or maximum flow if excess bandwidth does not exist and the flow exceeds the minimum.
