Abstract: A compute node coupled to a computer network via a computing device that includes communications for communicating with the computer network and persistent instructions for providing control functions to the computing device, wherein the control functions are defined by protocol data. An update control module of the computing device may receive update data from a remote node in the computer network via the communications, wherein the update data includes new protocol data for the persistent instructions. A protocol parser module may parse the update data and generate metadata relating to the update data. A classifier module may receive rules for the control functions, wherein the rules are based at least in part on the update data and metadata. A compiler may compile the parsed update data to the persistent instructions for providing new control functions to the computing device based at least in part on the received rules.

Abstract: Devices and techniques for accelerated packet processing are described herein. The device can match an action to a portion of a network data packet and accelerate the packet-processing pipeline for the network data packet through the machine by processing the action.
