An engine architecture for processing finite automata includes a hyper non-deterministic automata (HNA) processor specialized for non-deterministic finite automata (NFA) processing. The HNA processor includes a plurality of super-clusters and an HNA scheduler. Each super-cluster includes a plurality of clusters. Each cluster of the plurality of clusters includes a plurality of HNA processing units (HPUs). A corresponding plurality of HPUs of a corresponding plurality of clusters of at least one selected super-cluster is available as a resource pool of HPUs to the HNA scheduler for assignment of at least one HNA instruction to enable acceleration of a match of at least one regular expression pattern in an input stream received from a network.

The present disclosure relates to asymmetric read/write architectures for enhanced throughput and reduced latency. One example embodiment includes an integrated circuit. The integrated circuit includes a network interface. The integrated circuit also includes a communication bus interface. The integrated circuit is configured to establish a communication link with a processor of the host computing device over the communication bus interface, which includes mapping to memory addresses associated with the processor of the host computing device. The integrated circuit is also configured to receive payload data for transmission over the network interface in response to the processor of the host computing device writing payload data to the mapped memory addresses using one or more programmed input-outputs (PIOs). Further, the integrated circuit is configured to write payload data received over the network interface to the memory of the host computing device using direct memory access (DMA).

Disclosed herein are systems, methods, and processes to improve throughput in OpenFabrics and Remote Direct Memory Access (RDMA) computing environments. Data and a header is received. Buffers in which the data and the header are to be written are identified. Placement information for the data and the header is determined based on a size of each buffer, a page-boundary-alignment of the data, and a header alignment of the header. The data and the header are written to the buffer(s) using the placement information. In such computing environments, throughout can be improved by writing data on page boundaries and the header on a header boundary in a second to last buffer.

Method and apparatus for implementing an optimized credit return mechanism for packet sends. A Programmed Input/Output (PIO) send memory is partitioned into a plurality of send contexts, each comprising a memory buffer including a plurality of send blocks configured to store packet data. A storage scheme using FIFO semantics is implemented with each send block associated with a respective FIFO slot. In response to receiving packet data written to the send blocks and detecting the data in those send blocks has egressed from a send context, corresponding freed FIFO slots are detected, and a lowest slot for which credit return indicia has not be returned is determined. The highest slot in a sequence of freed slots from the lowest slot is then determined, and corresponding credit return indicia is returned. In one embodiment an absolute credit return count is implemented for each send context, with an associated absolute credit sent count tracked via software that writes to the PIO send memory, with the two absolute credit counts used for flow control.

System and techniques for enhanced electronic navigation maps for a vehicle are described herein. A descriptor set-up message may be received at a network controller interface (NIC).

When an access to the memory is detected by the access monitor circuit 15, the data stored in the memory 18 is transferred based on the destination information of the data stored in the memory 18.

A computing system includes a host, a first electronic device including a memory and an accelerator, and a second electronic device including a direct memory access (DMA) engine. Based on a command transmitted from the host through the first electronic device, the DMA engine transmits data and completion information of the command to the first electronic device. The memory includes a data buffer storing the data and a completion queue buffer storing the completion information. The accelerator executes a calculation on the data. The DMA engine transmits the data to the first electronic device and then transmits the completion information to the first electronic device.
