摘要： A method and apparatus for performing XOR operations on a hard disk drive are provided, which optimize the buffer bandwidth with minimal logic added to the hard disk controller integrated circuit. This is achieved by first storing data from a first source in the buffer memory in an interleaved fashion (i.e. at memory locations having addresses k, k+2 . . . ,k+2n-2) and then sequentially reading each bit set from the buffer memory, XORing it with a corresponding bit set read from a second source and writing the result at the next consecutive location in the buffer memory (i.e. at memory locations having addresses k+1, k+3 . . . k+2n-1). The method can be implemented on existing hard disk controllers with minimal modifications to the hardware. In addition, an embodiment of the invention allows for decoupling of the XOR operation from disk and host transfers, allowing each of those transfers to occur at their maximum rate and using the remaining buffer bandwidth for the XOR operation.

摘要： A hard disk controller integrated circuit of a SCSI target device comprises a sequencer which causes a SCSI bus to transition from a command bus phase to a data transfer bus phase during execution of an autoread or an autowrite SCSI command without waiting for a communication from a microprocessor of the SCSI target device. In some embodiments, the command is determined to be either an autotransfer command or a non-autotransfer command. If the command is a non-autotransfer command, then the sequencer does not proceed directly to the data transfer phase but rather requires microprocessor intervention before proceeding to the data transfer phase. In some embodiments, an autotransfer command (such as an autoread or an autowrite command) is carried out by the disk drive controller integrated circuit with only two interrupts being generated to the microprocessor: one after receiving the autotransfer command from the initiator; and one after data transfer of the autotransfer command is complete. The hard disk controller integrated circuit automatically sends the status byte and command complete message if there is no queue tag collision as indicated by a cleared tag not okay flag.

摘要： A method and apparatus for generating multiple frequency clock signals using a single input clock signal are provided. Each clock signal generated has a cycle time that is an integer multiple of the input clock cycle time. The fastest clock signal, i.e., the clock signal with the highest frequency generated has the same cycle time as the input clock. The rising edges of all the clock signals generated are synchronized and each clock signal generated has an approximate duty cycle of 50%. This is achieved by first applying the input clock signal to an input terminal of a plurality of registers and of a frequency control module of the signal generator, presenting control signals to input terminals of the registers and of the frequency control module, and generating a plurality of output clock signals in the frequency control module, dependent on the input clock signal and on the control signals.

摘要： Placing virtualization agents in the switches which comprise the SAN fabric. Higher level virtualization management functions are provided in an external management server. Conventional HBAs can be utilized in the hosts and storage units. In a first embodiment, a series of HBAs are provided in the switch unit. The HBAs connect to bridge chips and memory controllers to place the frame information in dedicated memory. Routine translation of known destinations is done by the HBA, based on a virtualization table provided by a virtualization CPU. If a frame is not in the table, it is provided to the dedicated RAM. Analysis and manipulation of the frame headers is then done by the CPU, with a new entry being made in the HBA table and the modified frames then redirected by the HBA into the fabric. This can be done in either a standalone switch environment or in combination with other switching components located in a director level switch. In an alternative embodiment, specialized hardware scans incoming frames and detects the virtualized frames which need to be redirected. The redirection is then handled by translation of the frame header information by hardware table-based logic and the translated frames are then returned to the fabric. Handling of frames not in the table and setup of hardware tables is done by an onboard CPU.

摘要： A hard disk controller integrated circuit of a SCSI target device comprises a dedicated command descriptor block "CDB" parsing state machine. The dedicated CDB parsing state machine parses incoming six-byte, ten-byte and twelve-byte SCSI command descriptor blocks and writes information from corresponding fields in the six-byte, ten-byte and twelve-byte SCSI command descriptor blocks into predetermined memory locations. In some embodiments, there are sixteen such predetermined memory locations which together comprise a 16.times.8 register file. A microprocessor coupled to the hard disk controller integrated circuit is therefore relieved of the burden of parsing incoming SCSI command descriptor blocks.
