Abstract: A parser for parsing a text-coded protocol includes: a parsing rule storage module, configured to store a parsing rule for parsing a packet of the text-coded protocol; and a packet parsing module, implemented by a logic chip, configured to parse the packet according to the parsing rule stored in the parsing rule storage module, and output a parsing result. Compared with software-based parsers, the hardware-based parser provided by embodiments of the present invention improves parsing efficiency and reduces cost of the parser. In addition, the parser provided by embodiments of the present invention has a better generality.

Abstract: A method and an apparatus for string pattern matching and parsing based on ABNF syntax. The method includes: defining an instruction set suitable for describing a string pattern rule; designing a compiler capable of translating the protocol rule described in ABNF syntax into a protocol rule described with the instruction set and an object code; designing a hardware parser according to the characteristics of the instruction set, the parser comprising a module implemented by a special hardware for supporting the corresponding instruction, thereby realizing string pattern matching and parsing.
