Abstract
A method for providing TCP/IP offload may include receiving control of at least a portion of Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) connection variables by a TCP/IP Offload Engine operatively coupled to a host. The at least a portion of the TCP/IP Offload Engine connection variables may be updated and provided to the host. The TCP/IP Offload Engine may receive control of segment-variant TCP connection variables. The TCP/IP Offload Engine may update the received TCP segment-variant TCP connection variables, and communicate the updated TCP segment-variant TCP connection variables to the host. A system for providing connection offload may include a TCP/IP Offload Engine that receives control of state information for a particular connection offloaded to a network interface card (NIC). Control of the state information for the particular connection may be split between the NIC and a host.
