Patent number: 11327900Abstract: Multiprocessor clusters in a virtualized environment conventionally fail to provide memory access security, which is frequently a requirement for efficient utilization in multi-client settings. Without adequate access security, a malicious process may access what might be confidential data that belongs to a different client sharing the multiprocessor cluster. Furthermore, an inadvertent programming error in the code for one client process may accidentally corrupt data that belongs to the different client. Neither scenario is acceptable. Embodiments of the present disclosure provide access security by enabling each processing node within a multiprocessor cluster to virtualize and manage local memory access and only process access requests possessing proper access credentials. In this way, different applications executing on a multiprocessor cluster may be isolated from each other while advantageously sharing the hardware resources of the multiprocessor cluster.Type: GrantFiled: July 23, 2020Date of Patent: May 10, 2022Assignee: NVIDIA CorporationInventors: Samuel Hammond Duncan, Sanjeev Jain, Mark Douglas Hummel, Vyas Venkataraman, Olivier Giroux, Larry Robert Dennison, Alexander Toichi Ishii, Hemayet Hossain, Nir Haim Arad

Patent number: 10015090Abstract: A method for steering packets includes receiving a packet and determining parameters to be used in steering the packet to a specific destination, in one or more initial steering stages, based on one or more packet specific attributes. The method further includes determining an identity of the specific destination of the packet in one or more subsequent steering stages, governed by the parameters determined in the one or more initial stages and one or more packet specific attributes, and forwarding the packet to the determined specific destination.Type: GrantFiled: May 4, 2016Date of Patent: July 3, 2018Assignee: MELLANOX TECHNOLOGIES, LTD.Inventors: Nir Haim Arad, Noam Bloch, Ariel Shahar, Hillel Chapman, Amir Wated
