METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR HANDLING INCOMING DATA FRAMES |
| 摘要 |
A method and apparatus for handling incoming data frames within a network interface controller. The network interface controller comprises at least one controller component operably coupled to at least one memory element. The at least one controller component is arranged to identify a next available buffer pointer from a pool of buffer pointers stored within a first area of memory within the at least one memory element, receive an indication that a start of a data frame has been received via a network interface, and allocate the identified next available buffer pointer to the data frame. |
