    Abstract: A network adapter includes a host interface, a network interface, a memory and packet processing circuitry. The memory holds a shared buffer and multiple queues allocated to the multiple host processors. The packet processing circuitry is configured to receive from the network interface data packets destined to the host processors, to store payloads of at least some of the data packets in the shared buffer, to distribute headers of at least some of the data packets to the queues, to serve the data packets to the host processors by applying scheduling among the queues, to detect congestion in the data packets destined to a given host processor among the host processors, and, in response to the detected congestion, to mitigate the congestion in the data packets destined to the given host processor, while retaining uninterrupted processing of the data packets destined to the other host processors.

    Abstract: Systems and methods are described herein for processing data packets. An example network adapter may include a network interface operatively coupled to a communication network and packet processing circuitry operatively coupled to the network interface. The packet processing circuitry is configured to receive, via the network interface, a plurality of data packets associated with a message; determine, for each data packet, at least one corresponding reserved stride in a strided buffer; store each data packet in the at least one corresponding reserved stride; process the strided buffer upon storing the plurality of data packets in a corresponding plurality of reserved strides; and generate a completion notification indicating that the plurality of data packets in the strided buffer has been processed.

    Abstract: Systems and methods are described herein for processing data packets. An example network adapter may include a network interface operatively coupled to a communication network and a packet processing circuitry operatively coupled to the network interface. The packet processing circuitry may receive, via the network interface, a message; retrieve, via a packet processing circuitry, a work queue element (WQE) index identifying a position of a WQE in a receive queue; determine that the message is associated with a small payload; process the message without consuming the WQE; receive, via the network interface, a subsequent message; and process the subsequent message using the WQE. In this way, the systems and methods describe herein reduce the latency in processing of the data packets.

    Abstract: A method includes presenting, by a processing device, in a user interface of a display device, a set of menu items associated with a plurality of criteria and detecting one or more input signals from one or more selections of the set of menu items. The method includes creating a command that includes one or more criteria corresponding to selected options of the plurality of criteria derived from the one or more input signals. The method includes sending, by the processing device, the command to a network adapter device to trigger a polling operation to be performed that causes internal logic of the network adapter device to sample event data associated with a latency of data packets sent by a hardware process that is specific to the one or more criteria.
