Abstract: A virtual machine (VM) can provision a region of memory for a queue to receive packet header, packet payload, and/or descriptors from the network interface. A virtual switch can provide a routing rule to a network interface to route a received packet header, packet payload, and/or descriptors associated with the VM to the provisioned queue. A direct memory access (DMA) transfer operation can be used to copy the received packet header, packet payload, and/or descriptors associated with the VM from the network interface to the provisioned queue without copying the packet header or payload to an intermediate buffer and from the intermediate buffer to the provisioned queue. A DMA operation can be used to transfer a packet or its descriptor from the provisioned queue to the network interface for transmission.

Abstract: Technologies for application-specific network acceleration include a computing device including a processor and an accelerator device such as a field-programmable gate array (FPGA). The processor and the accelerator device are coupled via a coherent interconnect and may be included in a multi-chip package. The computing device binds a virtual machine executed by the processor with an application function unit of the accelerator device via the coherent interconnect. The computing device processes network application data with the virtual machine and the application function unit within a coherency domain maintained with the coherent interconnect. Processing the network data may include processing a packet of a network flow by the virtual machine and processing subsequent packets of the network flow by the application function unit. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

Abstract: A computer system may comprise a multi-chip package (MCP), which includes multi-core processor circuitry and hardware accelerator circuitry. The multi-core processor circuitry may comprise a plurality of processing cores, and the hardware accelerator circuitry may be coupled with the multi-core processor circuitry via one or more coherent interconnects and one or more non-coherent interconnects. A coherency domain of the MCP may be extended to encompass the hardware accelerator circuitry, or portions thereof An interconnect selection module may select an individual coherent interconnect or an individual non-coherent interconnect based on application requirements of an application to be executed and a workload characteristic policy. Other embodiments are described and/or claimed.
