Abstract

See full text

Provided is a method for operating a host network controller for a network processor where the host network controller has at least one register. A restricted set of state data may be stored in at least one register. The restricted set of state data may be indicative of fewer possible states than those defined in accordance with a standardized communication protocol. The host network controller may implement a finite state machine based on the restricted set of state data stored in the at least one register such that the finite state machine may have fewer possible states than those defined in accordance with the standardized communication protocol.
