    摘要: A method and system for messaging between processors and co-processors connected through a bus. The method permits a multi-thread system processor to request the services of a processor or co-processor located on the bus. Message control blocks are stored in a memory which identify the physical address of the target processor, as well as a memory location in the memory dedicated to the thread requesting the service. When the system processor requests service of a processor or co-processor, a DCR command is created pointing to the message control block. A message is built from information contained in the message control block or transferred to the processor or co-processor. The return address for the processor or co-processor message is concatenated with the thread number, so that the processor or co-processor can create a return message specifically identifying memory space dedicated to the requesting thread for storage of the response message.

    摘要: A method and system for identifying a data structure associated with a packet of data. A processor internal to a packet processor may extract one or more fields in a packet header field of a received packet of data to generate a search key. The internal processor may then be configured to select which table, e.g., routing table, quality of service table, filter table, needs to be accessed using the search key in order to process the received packet of data. A determination may then be made by the internal processor as to whether a CAM or a hash table and a Patricia Tree are used to identify the data structure associated with the received packet of data. Based on table definitions in a register, the internal processor may make such a determination.

    摘要: A system and method of protocol and frame classification in a system for data processing (e.g., switching or routing data packets or frames). The present invention includes analyzing a portion of the packet or frame according to predetermined tests, then storing key characteristics of the packet for use in subsequent processing of the frame. The key characteristics for the frame (or input information unit, such as the type of layer 3 protocol used in the frame, the layer 2 encapsulation technique, the starting instruction address and flags indicating whether the frame uses a virtual local area network, preferably using hardware to quickly and in a uniform time period. The stored key characteristics of the packet are then used by the network processing complexes in its further processing of the frame. The processor is preconditioned with a starting instruction address and the location of the beginning of the layer 3 header as well as flags for the type of frame. That is, the instruction address or code entry point is used by the processor to start processing for a frame at the right place, based on the type of frame. Additionally, additional instruction addresses can be stacked and used sequentially at branches to avoid additional tests and branching instructions.

    摘要: A processing system includes a memory and a first core configured to process applications. The first core includes a first cache. The processing system includes a mechanism configured to capture a sequence of addresses of the application that miss the first cache in the first core and to place the sequence of addresses in a storage array; and a second core configured to process at least one software algorithm. The at least one software algorithm utilizes the sequence of addresses from the storage array to generate a sequence of prefetch addresses. The second core issues prefetch requests for the sequence of the prefetch addresses to the memory to obtain prefetched data and the prefetched data is provided to the first core if requested.
