Abstract: Systems and methods of multi-chip processing with low latency and congestion. In a multi-chip processing system, each chip includes a plurality of clusters arranged in a mesh design. A respective interconnect controller is disposed at the end of each column. The column is linked to a corresponding remote column in the other chip. A share cache controller in the column is paired with a corresponding cache controller in the remote column, the pair of cache controllers are configured to control data caching for a same set of main memory locations. Communications between cross-chip cache controllers are performed within linked columns of clusters via the column-specific inter-chip interconnect controllers.

Abstract: An apparatus is described comprising: a plurality of security processing resources for processing two or more different types of data traffic within a cryptographic processor; a first scheduler to provide a first type of data traffic to a first predefined subset of the security processing resources using a first scheduling technique; and a second scheduler to provide a second type of data traffic to a second predefined subset of the security processing resources using a second scheduling technique.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus are provided for selectively replicating a data structure in a low-latency memory. The memory includes multiple individual memory banks configured to store replicated copies of the same data structure. Upon receiving a request to access the stored data structure, a low-latency memory access controller selects one of the memory banks, then accesses the stored data from the selected memory bank. Selection of a memory bank can be accomplished using a thermometer technique comparing the relative availability of the different memory banks. Exemplary data structures that benefit from the resulting efficiencies include deterministic finite automata (DFA) graphs and other data structures that are loaded (i.e., read) more often than they are stored (i.e., written).

Abstract: A network transport layer accelerator accelerates processing of packets so that packets can be forwarded at wire-speed. To accelerate processing of packets, the accelerator performs pre-processing on a network transport layer header encapsulated in a packet for a connection and performs in-line network transport layer checksum insertion prior to transmitting a packet. A timer unit in the accelerator schedules processing of the received packets. The accelerator also includes a free pool allocator which manages buffers for storing the received packets and a packet order unit which synchronizes processing of received packets for a same connection.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for minimizing stalls in a pipelined processor is provided. Instructions in an out-of-order instruction scheduler are executed in order without stalling the pipeline by sending store data to external memory through an ordering queue.
