ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for providing a virtual output queue (VoQ) from a received set of data packets in a multi-service system. Each packet is divided into at least one partition, including a last partition that includes packet information, such as error status and packet length. The system receives the packet from a flow, parses the packet into partitions, including a first partition and the last partition, places each last partition into a linked list based on a time when the last partition was received, links the last partition to the first partition, and employs the linked list as the output queue. This system allows for rapid compilation and transmission of different sized packets, and obviates the need for the receiving processor to wait for the last partition to discard a bad packet.
