The source computing device is additionally configured to determine an amount of previously captured tokens present in a token bucket, determine whether there are a sufficient number of tokens available in the token bucket to transmit the received packet as a function of the switch time delta, the host scheduler time delta, and the amount of previously captured tokens present in the token bucket, and schedule the received network packet for transmission upon a determination that sufficient tokens in the token bucket.

Abstract: Technologies for an accelerator interface over Ethernet are disclosed. In the illustrative embodiment, a network interface controller of a compute device may receive a data packet. If the network interface controller determines that the data packet should be pre-processed (e.g., decrypted) with a remote accelerator device, the network interface controller may encapsulate the data packet in an encapsulating network packet and send the encapsulating network packet to a remote accelerator device on a remote compute device. The remote accelerator device may pre-process the data packet (e.g., decrypt the data packet) and send it back to the network interface controller. The network interface controller may then send the pre-processed packet to a processor of the compute device.

Abstract: IEEE 802.1Q and Enhanced Transmission Selection provide only eight different traffic classes that may be used to control bandwidth in a particular physical connection (or link). Instead of relying only on these eight traffic classes to manage bandwidth, the embodiments discussed herein disclose using an Enhanced Transmission Selection scheduler that permits a network device to set the bandwidth for an individual virtual LAN. Allocating bandwidth in a port based on a virtual LAN ID permits a network device to allocate bandwidth to, e.g., millions of unique virtual LANs. Thus, this technique may increase the granular control of the network fabric and its performance.

Abstract: A network fabric may divide a physical connection into a plurality of VLANs as defined by IEEE 802.1Q. Moreover, many network fabrics use Priority Flow Control to identify and segregate network traffic based on different traffic classes or priorities. Current routing protocols define only eight traffic classes. In contrast, a network fabric may contain thousands of unique VLANs. When network congestion occurs, network devices (e.g., switches, bridges, routers, servers, etc.) can negotiate to pause the network traffic associated with one of the different traffic classes. Pausing the data packets associated with a single traffic class may also stop the data packets associated with thousands of VLANs. The embodiments disclosed herein permit a network fabric to individually pause VLANs rather than entire traffic classes.

Abstract: A network processor includes first communication protocol ports that each support ‘M’ minimum size packet data path traffic on ‘N’ lanes at ‘S’ Gigabits per second (Gbps) and traffic with different communication protocol units on ‘n’ additional lanes at ‘s’ Gbps. The first communication protocol ports support access to an external coprocessor using parsing logic located in each of the first communication protocol ports. The parsing logic, during a parsing period, is configured to send a request to the external coprocessor at reception of a ‘M’ size packet and to receive a response from the external coprocessor. The parsing logic sends a request maximum ‘m’ size byte word to the external coprocessor on one of the additional lanes and receives a response maximum ‘m’ size byte word from the external coprocessor on the one of the additional lanes while complying with the equation N×S/M=<n×s/m.

Abstract: A mechanism is provided for sharing a communication used by a parser (parser path) in a network adapter of a network processor for sending requests for a process to be executed by an external coprocessor. The parser path is shared by processors of the network processor (software path) to send requests to the external processor. The mechanism uses for the software path a request mailbox comprising a control address and a data field accessed by MMIO for sending two types of messages, one message type to read or write resources and one message type to trigger an external process in the coprocessor and a response mailbox for receiving response from the external coprocessor comprising a data field and a flag field. The other processors of the network poll the flag until set and get the coprocessor result in the data field.
