Abstract: A system includes logic to store multiple descriptors, each of the multiple descriptors to be associated with a different set of multiple Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) packets received by the network controller, each of the multiple descriptors including a count of the number of packets in the set of multiple packets associated with a respective descriptor. For each of the respective receive packets, the system determines a one of the multiple descriptors based on the network source address, network destination address, source port, and destination port of the respective packet; includes the respective packet in the set of multiple packets associated with the determine one of the multiple descriptors; and updates the one of the multiple descriptors by incrementing the count of the number of packets in the set of multiple packets; and provides data from within the packets to the host.

Abstract: Disclosed is a method, system, and program for adding an operation (e.g., an operation that provides information about data for transfer or a storage operation) to a structure (e.g., a queue). If a priority level associated with a data packet identified by the operation has a first designation comprising a high priority, placing the operation into a first structure (e.g., a queue) with a least number of operations. If the priority level associated with the data packet identified by the operation has a second designation comprising a low priority, placing the operation into a second structure (e.g., a queue) with a most number of operations.

Abstract: Provided is a method and system for managing data processing rates at a network adapter using a temperature sensor. A temperature of a component in the adapter transmitting data over a network is measured. A rate at which data is processed in the adapter over the network is reduced in response to determining that the measured temperature exceeds a threshold.

Abstract: An arrangement is provided for ingress processing optimization via traffic classification and grouping. A plurality of packets are classified according to a classification criterion. The classified packets are used to generate a packet bundle containing packets that are uniform with respect to the classification criterion. The packet bundle and its corresponding packet bundle descriptor are transferred to a host which then processes the packet bundle as a whole according to the information contained in the packet bundle descrptor.
