摘要： System, method, and apparatus for improving the performance of collective operations in High Performance Computing (HPC). Compute nodes in a networked HPC environment form collective groups to perform collective operations. A spanning tree is formed including the compute nodes and switches and links used to interconnect the compute nodes, wherein the spanning tree is configured such that there is only a single route between any pair of nodes in the tree. The compute nodes implement processes for performing the collective operations, which includes exchanging messages between processes executing on other compute nodes, wherein the messages contain indicia identifying collective operations they belong to. Each switch is configured to implement message forwarding operations for its portion of the spanning tree. Each of the nodes in the spanning tree implements a ratcheted cyclical state machine that is used for synchronizing collective operations, along with status messages that are exchanged between nodes. Transaction IDs are also used to detect out-of-order and lost messages.

摘要： Methods, apparatus, and systems for implementing hierarchical and lossless packet preemption and interleaving to reduce latency jitter in flow-controller packet-based networks. Fabric packets are divided into a plurality of data units, with data units for different fabric packets buffered in separate buffers. Data units are pulled from the buffers and added to a transmit stream in which groups of data units are interleaved. Upon receipt by a receiver, the groups of data units are separated out and buffered in separate buffers under which data units for the same fabric packets are grouped together. In one aspect, each buffer is associated with a respective virtual lane (VL), and the fabric packets are effectively transferred over fabric links using virtual lanes. VLs may have different levels of priority under which data units for fabric packets in higher-priority VLs may preempt fabric packets in lower-priority VLs. By transferring data units rather than entire packets, transmission of a packet can be temporarily paused in favor of a higher-priority packet. Multiple levels of preemption and interleaving in a nested manner are supported.
摘要翻译：用于实现分级和无损数据包抢占和交织以减少流控制器基于分组的网络中的延迟抖动的方法，装置和系统。结构数据包被划分为多个数据单元，不同结构数据包的数据单元缓冲在单独的缓冲区中。数据单元被从缓冲器中拉出并且被添加到数据单元组交错的发送流中。在由接收器接收时，数据单元组被分离出并且在单独的缓冲器中缓冲，在这些缓冲器中，用于相同结构数据包的数据单元被分组在一起。在一个方面，每个缓冲器与相应的虚拟通道（VL）相关联，并且使用虚拟通道在结构链路上有效地传送结构数据包。 VL可以具有不同的优先级，在该优先级下，较高优先级VL中的结构数据包的数据单元可以优先考虑低优先级VL中的结构数据包。通过传送数据单元而不是整个分组，可以临时暂停分组的传输，以利于较高优先级的分组。支持多种级别的抢占和嵌套方式的交错。

摘要： Method, apparatus, and systems for implementing flexible credit exchange within high performance fabrics. Available buffer space in a receive buffer on a receive-side of a link is managed and tracked at the transmit-side of the link using credits. Peer link interfaces coupled via a link are provided with receive buffer configuration information that specifies how the receive buffer space in each peer is partitioned and space allocated for each buffer, including a plurality of virtual lane (VL) buffers. Credits are used for tracking buffer space consumption and in credits are returned from the receive-side indicating freed buffer space. The peer link interfaces exchange credit organization information to inform the other peer of how much space each credit represents. In connection with data transfer over the link, the transmit-side de-allocates credits based on an amount of buffer space to be consumed in applicable buffers in the receive buffer. Upon space being freed in the receive buffer, the receive-side returns credit ACKnowledgements (ACKs) identifying a VL for which space has been freed.
