Abstract: A method may include receiving one or more monitoring event definitions at an accelerator device from a first logical software entity to a first endpoint of the accelerator device having the first endpoint assigned for access by the first logical software entity, a second endpoint assigned to a second logical software entity such that second endpoint appears to the second logical software entity as a logical hardware adapter, and a third endpoint assigned to a third logical software entity, the accelerator device for accelerating data transfer operations between the second logical software entity and the third logical software entity via the second endpoint and the third endpoint. The method may also include monitoring by the accelerator device for one or more defined monitoring events occurring during the data transfer operations and communicating monitoring information to the first logical software entity from the accelerator device via the first endpoint.

Abstract: Methods and systems for I/O acceleration on a virtualized information handling system include loading a storage virtual appliance as a virtual machine on a hypervisor. The hypervisor may execute using a first processor and a second processor. The storage virtual appliance is accessed by the hypervisor using a PCI-E device driver that is mapped to a first PCI-E NTB logical endpoint at the first processor. A second PCI-E device driver may be loaded on the storage virtual appliance that accesses the hypervisor and is mapped to a second PCI-E NTB logical endpoint at the second processor. A data transfer operation may be executed between a first memory space that is mapped to the first PCI-E NTB logical endpoint and a second memory space that is mapped to the second PCI-E NTB logical endpoint. The data transfer operation may be a read or a write operation.
