    摘要: A solution for reducing latency in a host computing device communicating with network-attached devices over a network. The host includes two network adapters that each support bidirectional communications with the host. The solution includes a dual module that represents the two network adapters as a single logical interface to both the host and the network-attached devices. An inbound module directs inbound data sent to the interface by the devices through one of the network adapters, while an outbound module directs outbound data sent to the interface by the host through the other. In one embodiment, the outbound module is responsible for intercepting data sent to the interface and sending it through the network adapter dedicated to outbound communications. The solution also includes a mode module to enable the latency reduction apparatus, and a collapse module that enables bidirectional communications through the remaining network adapter if a network adapter fails.

    摘要: A method and system are disclosed for network adaptor optimization and interrupt reduction. The method may generate an immediate I/O interrupt notification to a host device driver in response to receiving data from a network. The method may also update an inbound buffer list based on the received data in the inbound buffer queue. Furthermore, the method may set the buffer state from an empty state to a primed state to indicate that the received data is available for processing. The method may also build an outbound buffer list based on outgoing data and add the outgoing data to an outbound buffer queue. Furthermore, the method may set a buffer state from an empty state to a primed state to indicate that the outgoing data is prepared for transmitting and signal a network adaptor with a notification signal.
