Abstract: Methods, apparatus, and articles of manufacture for retaining packet order in multiprocessor systems utilizing multiple transmit queues are disclosed herein. Embodiments of the present invention define multiple transmit queues for a given priority level of packets to enable the multiprocessor system to process and queue packets of equal priority in different transmit queues. Queuing packets of equal priority in different transmit queues minimizes processor time spent attempting to acquire queue-specific resources associated with one particular transmit queue. In addition, embodiments of the present invention provide an assignment mechanism to ensure that packets corresponding to a common flow are queued in the same transmit queue in order to eliminate, to the extent possible, out-or-order packets, which many times results in lost packets and a reduction in realized network throughput.

Abstract: A method, apparatus, and article of manufacture for retaining packet order in multiprocessor systems utilizing multiple transmit queues while minimizing spinlocks are disclosed herein. Embodiments of the present invention define multiple transmit queues for a given priority level of packets to allow parallel processing and queuing of packets having equal priority in different transmit queues. Queuing packets of equal priority in different transmit queues minimizes processor time spent attempting to acquire queue-specific resources associated with one particular transmit queue. In addition, embodiments of the present invention provide an assignment mechanism to maximize utilization of the multiple transmit queues by queuing packets corresponding to each transmit request in a next available transmit queue defined for a given priority level. Coordination between hardware and software allows the order of the queued packets to be maintained in the transmission process.

Abstract: Computer network apparatus may include a packet-receiving module to receive a packet into an element of a storage array while a low resource state exists, an array truncation module to truncate the array at the element when the array is full or when no more packets are available to be received, and an array indication module to indicate the array after the array truncation module truncates the array. In one embodiment, a system may include a receiving node containing the apparatus. A method may include receiving a packet into an element of an array while a low resource state exists, truncating the array at the element after the array is full or no more packets are available to be received, and indicating the array.

Abstract: Two timers are used to improve ingress throughput. Decisions to transfer the ingress packets are made based on when the two timers expire. A first timer is used to time how long a first ingress packet waits before it is transferred. When this first timer expires, the all received ingress packets including the first ingress packet are transferred. A second timer is used to time how long to wait for a new ingress packet to be received. The second timer is reset if a new ingress packet is received before expiration of the second timer. When the second timer expires and no new ingress packet is received during the wait, all received ingress packets including the first ingress packet are transferred.

Abstract: System and techniques for multifactor intelligent agent control are described herein. A workload request may be received from a user device via a network. The workload may be instantiated in an isolated environment on an edge computing platform. Here, the isolated environment may be a container or a virtual machine. The instantiation of the workload may include using a hardware security component (SEC) of the mobile edge computing platform to prevent access to data or code of the workload from other environments hosted by the mobile edge computing platform. The workload may then be executed in the isolated environment and a result of the workload returned to the user device.

Abstract: A system includes a host and a network controller coupled to the host by a bus. The system includes logic to classify Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) receive packets based on the network source, network destination, port source, and port destination of the respective receive packets; and cause queuing of the receive packets in a one of multiple receive queues based on the classifying such that receive packets having the same network source, network destination, port source, and port destination are to be queued to the same one of the multiple queues for processing.
