ADAPTIVE CORE GROUPING

摘要

The present invention relates to a system, method, and non-transitory storage medium executable by one or more processors at a multi-processor system that improves load monitoring and processor-core assignments as compared to conventional approaches. A method consistent with the present invention includes a first data packet being received at a multi-processor system. After the first packet is received it may be sent to a first processor where the first processor identifies a first processing task associated with the first data packet. The first data packet may then be forwarded to a second processor that is optimized for processing the first processing task of the first data packet. The second processor may then process the first processing task of the first data packet. Program code associated with the first processing task may be stored in a level one (L1) cache at the first processor.

1. A method for optimizing the performance of processing packets, the method comprising:
receiving a first data packet at a first processor of a multi-processor system; identifying a first type of packet processing task of the first data packet; forwarding the first data packet to a second processor of the multi-processor system for processing the first type of processing task of the first data packet; and the second processor executing instructions out of a level 1 (L1) cache at the second processor when processing the first type of packet processing task of the first data packet.
