摘要： A transactional memory (TM) receives a lookup command across a bus from a processor. The command includes a base address, a starting bit position, and a mask size. In response to the lookup command, the TM pulls an input value (IV). The TM uses the starting bit position and the mask size to select a portion of the IV. A first sub-portion of the portion of the IV and the base address are summed to generate a memory address. The memory address is used to read a word containing multiple result values (RVs) from memory. One RV from the word is selected using a multiplexing circuit and a second sub-portion of the portion of the IV. If the selected RV is a final value, then lookup operation is complete and the TM sends the RV to the processor, otherwise the TM performs another lookup operation based upon the selected RV.

摘要： An island-based network flow processor (IB-NFP) integrated circuit includes islands organized in rows. A configurable mesh event bus extends through the islands and is configured to form a local event ring. The configurable mesh event bus is configured with configuration information received via a configurable mesh control bus. The local event ring involves event ring circuits and event ring segments. In one example, a packet is received onto a first island. If an amount of a processing resource (for example, memory buffer space) available to the first island is below a threshold, then an event packet is communicated from the first island to a second island via the local event ring. In response, the second island causes a third island to communicate via a command/push/pull data bus with the first island, thereby increasing the amount of the processing resource available to the first island for handing incoming packets.

摘要： An island-based network flow processor (IB-NFP) integrated circuit has a high performance processor island. The processor island has a processor and a tightly coupled memory. The integrated circuit also has another memory. The other memory may be internal or external memory. The header of an incoming packet is stored in the tightly coupled memory of the processor island. The payload is stored in the other memory. In one example, if the amount of a processing resource is below a threshold then the header is moved from the first island to the other memory before the header and payload are communicated to an egress island for outputting from the integrated circuit. If, however, the amount of the processing resource is not below the threshold then the header is moved directly from the processor island to the egress island and is combined with the payload there for outputting from the integrated circuit.

摘要： A transactional memory (TM) receives a lookup command across a bus from a processor. Only final result values are stored in memory. The command includes a base address, a starting bit position, and mask size. In response to the lookup command, the TM pulls an input value (IV). A selecting circuit within the TM uses the starting bit position and mask size to select a portion of the IV. The portion of the IV and the base address are used to generate a memory address. The memory address is used to read a word containing multiple result values (RVs) from memory. One RV from the word is selected using a multiplexing circuit and a result location value (RLV) generated from the portion of the IV. A word selector circuit and arithmetic circuits are used to generate the memory address and RLV. The TM sends the selected RV to the processor.

摘要： A hardware trie structure includes a tree of internal node circuits and leaf node circuits. Each internal node is configured by a corresponding multi-bit node control value (NCV). Each leaf node can output a corresponding result value (RV). An input value (IV) supplied onto input leads of the trie causes signals to propagate through the trie such that one of the leaf nodes outputs one of the RVs onto output leads of the trie. In a transactional memory, a memory stores a set of NCVs and RVs. In response to a lookup command, the NCVs and RVs are read out of memory and are used to configure the trie. The IV of the lookup is supplied to the input leads, and the trie looks up an RV. A non-final RV initiates another lookup in a recursive fashion, whereas a final RV is returned as the result of the lookup command.

摘要： A transactional memory (TM) receives an Atomic Metering Command (AMC) across a bus from a processor. The command includes a memory address and a meter pair indicator value. In response to the AMC, the TM pulls an input value (IV). The TM uses the memory address to read a word including multiple credit values from a memory unit. Circuitry within the TM selects a pair of credit values, subtracts the IV from each of the pair of credit values thereby generating a pair of decremented credit values, compares the pair of decremented credit values with a threshold value, respectively, thereby generating a pair of indicator values, performs a lookup based upon the pair of indicator values and the meter pair indicator value, and outputs a selector value and a result value that represents a meter color. The selector value determines the credit values written back to the memory unit.

摘要： An island-based network flow processor (IB-NFP) integrated circuit includes rectangular islands disposed in rows. In one example, the configurable mesh data bus is configurable to form a command/push/pull data bus over which multiple transactions can occur simultaneously on different parts of the integrated circuit. The rectangular islands of one row are oriented in staggered relation with respect to the rectangular islands of the next row. The left and right edges of islands in a row align with left and right edges of islands two rows down in the row structure. The data bus involves multiple meshes. In each mesh, the island has a centrally located crossbar switch and six radiating half links, and half links down to functional circuitry of the island. The staggered orientation of the islands, and the structure of the half links, allows half links of adjacent islands to align with one another.
