Abstract

See full text

A system for buffering data received from a network comprises a network socket, a plurality of buffers, a buffer pointer pool, receive logic, and packet delivery logic. The buffer pointer pool has a plurality of entries respectively pointing to the buffers. The receive logic is configured to pull an entry from the pool and to perform a bulk read of the network socket. The entry points to one of the buffers, and the receive logic is further configured to store data from the bulk read to the one buffer based on the entry. The packet delivery logic is configured to read, based on the entry, the one buffer and to locate a missing packet sequence in response to a determination, by the packet delivery logic, that the one buffer is storing an incomplete packet sequence. The packet delivery logic is further configured to form a complete packet sequence based on the incomplete packet sequence and the missing packet sequence.
