ABSTRACT:
Route switch packet architecture processes data packets using a multi-threaded pipelined machine wherein no instruction depends on a preceding instruction because each instruction in the pipeline is executed for a different thread. The route switch packet architecture transfers a data packet from a flexible data input buffer to a packet task manager, dispatches the data packet from the packet task manager to a multi-threaded pipelined analysis machine, classifies the data packet in the analysis machine, modifies and forwards the data packet in a packet manipulator. The route switch packet architecture includes an analysis machine having multiple pipelines, wherein one pipeline is dedicated to directly manipulating individual data bits of a bit field, a packet task manager, a packet manipulator, a global access bus including a master request bus and a slave request bus separated from each other and pipelined, an external memory engine, and a hash engine.
