Virtualized network interface for TCP reassembly buffer allocation |
摘要 |
A method and a system embodying the method for dynamically allocating context for Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) reassembly, comprising providing a fixed plurality of global common TCP contexts; reserving for each of one or more virtual network interface card(s) one or more TCP context(s) out of the fixed plurality of the global common TCP contexts; and allocating to a virtual network interface card from the one or more virtual network interface card(s) a TCP context from the reserved one or more TCP contexts when a reassemble able TCP packet is received by the virtual network interface card, is disclosed. |

1. A method for dynamically allocating context for Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) reassembly, comprising:
providing a fixed plurality of global common TCP contexts; reserving for each of one or more virtual network interface card(s) one or more TCP context(s) out of the fixed plurality of the global common TCP contexts, leaving a reminder of the fixed plurality of the global common TCP contexts comprising one or more contexts; and allocating to a virtual network interface card from the one or more virtual network interface card(s) a TCP context from the reserved one or more TCP contexts when a reassemble able TCP packet is received by the virtual network interface card. |
