EXTENDING BERKELEY PACKET FILTER SEMANTICS FOR HARDWARE OFFLOADS
Examples include registering a device driver with an operating system, including registering available hardware offloads. The operating system receives a call to a hardware offload, inserts a binary filter representing the hardware offload into a hardware component and causes the execution of the binary filter by the hardware component when the hardware offload is available, and executes the binary filter in software when the hardware offload is not available.
System and method for supporting inter-subnet control plane protocol for consistent unicast routing and connectivity in a high performance computing environment
Systems and methods for unicast traffic across multiple subnets in a high performance computing environment. In accordance with an embodiment, a local inter-subnet manager (ISM) can allocate at least one router port in the local subnet for receiving traffic for a relevant end node belonging to an inter-subnet partition (ISP) for each remote subnet that also comprises end nodes sharing a same ISP membership, and can also set up address mappings for the relevant GID(s) (e.g., GID or GUID to LID mapping).
SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR SUPPORTING INTER SUBNET PARTITIONS IN A HIGH PERFORMANCE COMPUTING ENVIRONMENT
Systems and methods for supporting inter subnet partitions in a high performance computing environment. In accordance with an embodiment, a fabric manager can define a range of P_Key values, among a plurality of P_Key values, as a inter subnet partition (ISP) P_Key range. The fabric manager can communicate this defined range of P_Key values to a number of subnets, via their subnet managers. The subnet managers in each subnet retain management over their subnets. As there is no central management that configures each side of inter subnet communication, subnet managers on within participating subnets can set up ISP membership, and then exchange information with the other subnet.
Resource usage for a remote session using artificial network bandwidth shaping
Disclosed are systems and methods for managing computing resources for a remote session that has been established between a client and a remote server via a communication channel. Such a remote session is configured to automatically adapt image quality of the remote session based on a network status of the communication channel. The described technique includes detecting an inactive state of the remote session, and in turn, modifying at least one network setting of the client using a network shaping rule specified to artificially reduce a network quality of the communication channel used by the client for traffic of the remote session, so as to cause the client to reduce image quality of the remote session and reduce an amount of data exchanged between the remote server and the client.
System and method for supporting resource quotas for intra and inter subnet multicast membership in a high performance computing environment
Systems and methods for supporting resource quotas for multicast group creation and membership in a high performance computing environment. In accordance with an embodiment, multicast group membership can present an issue in that inter-subnet partitions can, if left unchecked, runaway with multicast group creation within any given connected subnet. This can starve address map resources at router ports. A quota can be supplied that provides a maximum number of multicast groups any given inter-subnet partition is allowed to create within any given subnet.
Control element trigger
A wireless device may receive configuration parameters for configured uplink transmissions via a plurality of resources. A first uplink transmission may be associated with a first resource in the plurality of resources and may be associated with a first HARQ process number. The wireless device may cancel a trigger for transmitting a buffer status report and create a first packet comprising the buffer status report for transmission via the first resource. The wireless device may receive, before a scheduled transmission of the first packet, a downlink control information for transmission of a second packet. The second packet may be associated with the first HARQ process number. In response to the downlink control information, the wireless device may drop the scheduled transmission of the first packet via the first resource and trigger the trigger for transmitting the buffer status report in response to receiving the downlink control information.

DETECTION BLOCK SENDING AND RECEIVING METHOD, AND NETWORK DEVICE AND SYSTEM
The present disclosure relates to detection block sending and receiving methods, and network devices and systems. One example method includes obtaining, by a network device, an original bit block data flow, generating at least one detection block, inserting the at least one detection block into a position of at least one idle block in the original bit block data flow, and sending a bit block data flow including the at least one detection block.
System and method for supporting multiple lids for dual-port virtual routers in a high performance computing environment
Systems and methods for supporting multiple LIDs for dual-port virtual routers in a high performance computing environment. In accordance with an embodiment, a dual port router abstraction can provide a simple way for enabling subnet-to-subnet router functionality to be defined based on a switch hardware implementation. A virtual dual-port router can logically be connected outside a corresponding switch port. This virtual dual-port router can provide an InfiniBand specification compliant view to a standard management entity, such as a Subnet Manager. In order to allow for packets addressed outside of a local subnet and for those packets addressed to a switch port configured as a router port within a local subnet, the subnet manager can configure the switch port configured as a router port with two or more local identifiers.
SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR SUPPORTING SMA LEVEL ABSTRACTIONS AT ROUTER PORTS FOR INTER-SUBNET EXCHANGE OF MANAGEMENT INFORMATION IN A HIGH PERFORMANCE COMPUTING ENVIRONMENT
Systems and methods for supporting SMA level abstractions at router ports for inter-subnet exchange of management information in a high performance computing environment. In accordance with an embodiment, a subnet manager in a local subnet is responsible for establishing and configuring a remote attribute a switch having a switch port configured as a router port. This remote attribute can comprise certain information about the local subnet, including connectivity information and port status information. On receiving a query from a remote subnet manager, via a SMP (or a vendor specific SMP), information contained in the remote attribute can be communicated back to the remote subnet manager.
