ABSTRACT:
An ATM communications system. The system includes an ATM network on which ATM cells of ATM packets travel. The system includes a host having a host memory mechanism preferably having cache lines which stores the cells. The system includes an interface having a receive memory mechanism which stores a partial packet comprising a plurality of cells received from the ATM network. The receive memory mechanism aligns with the host memory mechanism so every transfer from the receive memory mechanism of the plurality of cells to the host memory mechanism fills the host memory mechanism along cache lines of the host memory mechanism. The interface has a bus which connects to the host on which communication between the host and the interface occurs. The interface is connected to the ATM network. A method for sending ATM cells over an ATM network. An interface for a host to receive ATM cells from an ATM communication network.
