Method of notifying a process or programmable atomic operation traps
11436187 · 2022-09-06 · ·

Methods, systems, programmable atomic units, and machine-readable mediums that provide an exception as a response to the calling processor. That is, the programmable atomic unit will send a response to the calling processor. The calling processor will recognize that the exception has been raised and will handle the exception. Because the calling processor knows which process triggered the exception, the calling processor (e.g., the Operating System) can take appropriate action, such as terminating the calling process. The calling processor may be a same processor as that executing the programmable atomic transaction, or a different processor (e.g., on a different chiplet).

MULTIPLE FIELD PROGRAMMABLE GATE ARRAY (FPGA) BASED MULTI-LEGGED ORDER TRANSACTION PROCESSING SYSTEM AND METHOD THEREOF

Conventionally, for processing multi-legged orders, matching engines were implemented in software and were connected through Ethernet which is very slow in terms of throughput. Such traditional trading systems failed to process orders of tokens on different machines and these were summarily rejected. Present disclosure provides multiple FPGA system being optimized for processing/executing multi-legged orders. The system includes a plurality of FPGAs which are interconnected for communication via a PCIe port of a multi-port PCIe switch. Each FPGA comprise a net processing layer, a matcher, and a look-up table. Each FPGA is configured to process tokens (e.g., securities, etc.). If orders to be processed are for tokens on same FPGA where the order is received, then tokens are processed locally. Else net processing layer of a specific FPGA routes to specific order request to another FPGA where the tokens (securities) are located thereby reducing the latency and improving overall throughput.
