Abstract: A network interface controller (NIC) capable of on-demand paging is provided. The NIC can be equipped with a host interface, an operation logic block, and an address logic block. The host interface can couple the NIC to a host device. The operation logic block can obtain from a remote device, a request for an operation based on a virtual memory address. The address logic block can obtain, from the operation logic block, a request for an address translation for the virtual memory address and issue an address translation request to the host device via the host interface. If the address translation is unsuccessful, the address logic block can send a page request to a processor of the host device via the host interface. The address logic block can then determine that a page has been allocated in response to the page request and reissue the address translation request.

Abstract: A network interface controller (NIC) capable of efficient packet injection into an output buffer is provided. The NIC can be equipped with an output buffer, a plurality of injectors, a prioritization logic block, and a selection logic block. The plurality of injectors can share the output buffer. The prioritization logic block can determine a priority associated with a respective injector based on a high watermark and a low watermark associated with the injector. The selection logic block can then determine, from the plurality of injectors, a subset of injectors associated with a buffer class and determine whether the subset of injectors includes a high-priority injector. Upon identifying a high-priority injector in the subset of injectors, the selection logic block can select the high-priority injector for injecting a packet in the output buffer.

Abstract: System and method for supporting configurable legacy P_Key table abstraction using a bitmap based hardware implementation in a high performance computing environment. A mapping table in DRAM can be provided through the use of a software based SMA that implements the mapping table. With this mapping table, it is possible to provide a legacy compliant view of a bit map based P_Key table. Such a legacy compliant view can be called a virtual P_Key table, or a configurable legacy P_Key table abstraction.

Abstract: A physical layer (PHY) is coupled to a serial, differential link that is to include a number of lanes. The PHY includes a transmitter and a receiver to be coupled to each lane of the number of lanes. The transmitter coupled to each lane is configured to embed a clock with data to be transmitted over the lane, and the PHY periodically issues a blocking link state (BLS) request to cause an agent to enter a BLS to hold off link layer flit transmission for a duration. The PHY utilizes the serial, differential link during the duration for a PHY associated task selected from a group including an in-band reset, an entry into low power state, and an entry into partial width state.

Abstract: Systems and methods for sending and receiving messages, including training data, using a multi-path packet spraying protocol are described. A method includes segmenting a message into a set of data packets comprising training data. The method further includes initiating transmission of the set of data packets to a receiving node. The method further includes spraying the set of data packets across the switch fabric in accordance with the multi-path spraying protocol such that depending upon a value of a fabric determination field associated with a respective data packet, the respective data packet can traverse via any one of a plurality of paths offered by the switch fabric for a connection between the sending node to the receiving node. The method further includes initiating transmission of synchronization packets to the receiving node, where unlike the set of data packets, the synchronization packets are not sprayed across the switch fabric.

Abstract: A system for hot swapping a network switch without disconnecting the network switch connectors is provided. The system disaggregates the switch faceplate network cable connectors from the internal components of the network switch so that the internal switch components may be removed from the switch without disconnecting the switch network cables.

Abstract: A computer program product and a network switch are provided. The network switch may include network ports, memory and a processor for processing program instructions to perform various operations. The computer program product may provide the program instructions for a network switch. The operations may include detecting a first neighbor network switch connection to a first port of the first network switch, accessing first neighbor network switch configuration data that is stored by the first network switch in association with the first port, and providing the configuration data that is stored in association with the first port of the first network switch to the first neighbor network switch over the first neighbor network switch connection to the first port. In one example, the configuration data is obtained from a second neighbor network switch that was previously connected to the first port prior to the first neighbor network switch.
