    Abstract: A firewall device may include a forwarding component that includes a filter block. The filter block may obtain a first hardware-implemented filter, where a hardware implementation limits the first hardware-implemented filter to a maximum quantity of rules; determine whether a last rule associated with the accessed hardware-implemented filter includes a split-filter action, where the split-filter action identifies a second hardware-implemented filter; and link the second hardware-implemented filter to the first hardware-implemented filter to make the second hardware-implemented filter a logical continuation of the first hardware-implemented filter, in response to determining that the last rule includes the split-filter action. The filter block may further determine whether a particular rule of the first hardware-implemented filter includes a next-filter action, where the next filter action identifies a third hardware-implemented filter; and process the third hardware-implemented filter independently of the sequence of hardware attachment points.

    Abstract: A data read/write system includes a system clock, a single port memory, a cache memory that is separate from the single port memory, and a controller coupled to an instruction pipeline. The controller receives, via the instruction pipeline, first data to write to an address of the single port memory, and further receives, via the instruction pipeline, a request to read second data from the single port memory. The controller stores the first data in the cache memory, and retrieves the second data from either the cache memory or the single port memory during one or more first clock cycles of the system clock. The controller copies the first data from the cache memory and stores the first data at the address in the single port memory during a second clock cycle of the system clock that is different than the one or more first clock cycles.
