Abstract: Systems and methods for generating synthesizable code representing first-in first-out (FIFO) memories may be used to produce FIFO memories for multi-threaded processing. A single FIFO memory is shared between the threads to conserve die area, however each thread may be executed independently, as if each thread has a dedicated FIFO memory. A synthesizable code generator produces synthesizable code for a sender interface, storage, receiver interface, and other features that are specified by a programmer. The other features may reduce power consumption or improve timing. The code generator is used to efficiently produce different variations of FIFO memories.

Abstract: A novel network architecture that integrates the functions of an internet protocol (IP) router into a network processing unit (NPU) that resides in a host computer's chipset such that the host computer's resources are perceived as separate network appliances. The NPU appears logically separate from the host computer even though, in one embodiment, it is sharing the same chip.

Abstract: Systems and methods for monitoring the accuracy of unit status reporting within an application specific integrated circuit device may be used reduce power consumption. Accurate status reporting of an idle state is needed to safely disable a clock signal for a unit in order to reduce the power needed by that unit. A watchdog monitor may be used during functional simulation and synthesized for formal verification, emulation, and functional device testing and debugging. The watchdog monitor may also be configured based on specific characteristics of the unit that it is monitoring.

Abstract: Systems and methods for designing and generating integrated circuits using a high-level language are described. The high-level language is used to generate performance models, functional models, synthesizable register transfer level code defining the integrated circuit, and verification environments. The high-level language may be used to generate templates for custom computation logical units for specific user-determined functionality. The high-level language and compiler permit optimizations for power savings and custom circuit layout, resulting in integrated circuits with improved performance per watt of power consumption.

Abstract: Method and apparatus for network level protocol negotiation for Internet Protocol Security (IPSec) and Internet Protocol Payload Compression (IPComp) are described. More particularly, IPSec and IPComp capabilities are instantiated in a network processor unit of a network interface in at least two communicating computers. By determining each computer has the capacity to due IPSec and IPComp at the transport level, such is negotiated and executed at the transport level independently of an operating system and a central processing unit usage. Additionally, encryption and/or compression are done at the network level operating system and central processing unit offloading.

Abstract: Described is an enhanced application of a fast kernel trap, or kernel function call, in combination with a kernel system call providing a system of handling complications during kernel thread operations. In the event of a complication during kernel function call processing, the kernel function call promotes to a system call. If the kernel function call holds a spin lock at the time of promotion, the spin lock is released. Kernel function call processing is divided into phases and a phase identifier is provided to the system call. To avoid repeating processing steps already performed by the kernel function call, system call processing begins at the phase where the complication occurred. When the system call processing reaches a suspend phase, the system call will demote to a kernel function call and release its kernel stack.
