Abstract

See full text

A method for receiving a data packet is described. The method may include receiving a frame in a host Ethernet adapter from an Ethernet network. The frame may be parsed to determine a data packet size. A work queue element (WQE) may be selected from two or more available WQEs having different data packet size capacity. Data packet storage may be provided for each WQE, including at least some cache storage associated with a processor. The data packet may be stored in the data packet storage associated with the selected WQE based on the data packet size, including storing in the cache for data packets under selected conditions.
