ABSTRACT:
A single queue or descriptor ring references several context control blocks, each of which corresponds to a different data path in a communications system. An entry in the descriptor ring references an appropriate context control block and a source packet representing a packet locations prior to processing. The descriptor ring may include a destination packet representing the packet locations after processing. The descriptor ring is particularly suitable for communications between a main processor and a coprocessor.
