  • Patent number: 11934330
    Abstract: Examples described herein relate to an offload processor to receive data for transmission using a network interface or received in a packet by a network interface. In some examples, the offload processor can include a packet storage controller to determine whether to store data in a buffer of the offload processing device or a system memory after processing by the offload processing device. In some examples, determine whether to store data in a buffer of the offload processor or a system memory is based on one or more of: available buffer space, latency limit associated with the data, priority associated with the data, or available bandwidth through an interface between the buffer and the system memory. In some examples, the offload processor is to receive a descriptor and specify a storage location of data in the descriptor, wherein the storage location is within the buffer or the system memory.

  • Patent number: 11792132
    Abstract: Technologies for aligning network flows to processing resources include a computing device having multiple processing nodes, a network switch, and a network controller operating in a software-defined network. Each processing node of the computing device may include a processor, memory, and network adapter. The network switch may receive a network packet and request forwarding information from the network controller. The network controller may determine flow information corresponding to the network packet that indicates the application targeted by the network packet and the processing node executing the application. The flow information may be transmitted to the computing device, which may program a flow filter in the network adapter of the processing node executing the application.

  • Publication number: 20210326221
    Abstract: Examples described herein relate to a network interface device that comprises circuitry, when operational, to select a platform to execute a function and based on load of the platform, selectively cause the function to execute on one or more other platforms to attempt to achieve or finish before the time-to-completion. In some examples, the circuitry is to detect progress of function execution to determine whether completion of execution of the function is predicted to not finish within the time-to-completion and cause the function to execute on one or more other platforms based on completion of execution of the function predicted to not finish within the time-to-completion. In some examples, the circuitry is to select the one or more other platforms to execute the function based on one or more of: processor computing utilization, available memory capacity, available cache capacity, network availability, or malfunction of a processor, memory, and/or cache.

  • Publication number: 20210232528
    Abstract: Examples described herein relate to an apparatus comprising: a descriptor format translator accessible to a driver. In some examples, the driver and descriptor format translator share access to transmit and receive descriptors. In some examples, based on a format of a descriptor associated with a device differing from a second format of descriptor associated with the driver, the descriptor format translator is to: perform a translation of the descriptor from the format to the second format and store the translated descriptor in the second format for access by the device. In some examples, the device is to access the translated descriptor; the device is to modify content of the translated descriptor to identify at least one work request; and the descriptor format translator is to translate the modified translated descriptor into the format and store the translated modified translated descriptor for access by the driver.

  • Publication number: 20210119878
    Abstract: Telemetry information provided by a computing device includes switching key performance indicators (KPIs), platform KPIs, and topology information. The telemetry information is used to identify performance issues at the computing device, such as packets being dropped in a virtual switching stack or misconfiguration errors. A virtual switching monitor can identify which layers in the switching stack have errors and whether the errors occur along a transmit or receive path in the switching stack. A virtual switching controller can identify remedial actions that can be taken at the computing device to remedy a performance issue. A remedial action can be taken automatically, subject to user approval, or automatically after additional criteria are met.
