    Abstract: A byte swapping device includes first and second data ports and data path logic coupled between the first and second data ports. The byte swapping device is employed in a data processing system comprising a data storage device configured to store bytes of data, a processor which reads data from the data storage device and writes data to the data storage device, and the bytes wapping device coupled between the data storage device and the processor. The first data port is coupled to the storage device and the second data port is coupled to the processor. The storage device is typically a system memory or peripheral device controller. The processor processes data in a first endian format, i.e., big-endian or little-endian format, and at least a portion of the data stored in the data storage device is in the opposite byte ordering. The byte swapping device selectively byte swaps data transferred between the processor and storage device. In the preferred embodiment, data conversion apertures, or ranges, are defined in the processor address space and the processor provides address signals to the byte swapping device. The byte swapping device selectively byte swaps the data based upon the relationship between the addresses received by the byte swapping device and the data conversion apertures. In one embodiment, the processor programs aperture storage elements with the values of the data conversion apertures. In another embodiment, the data conversion apertures are fixed. In an alternate embodiment, the processor provides control signals to the byte swapping device, wherein the byte swapping device selectively converts the data in response to the control signals from the processor. In one embodiment, the processor is configured to execute a characteristic instruction set, wherein the processor provides the one or more control signals to the byte swapping device in response device in response to which instruction in the instruction set the processor executes.

    Abstract: A method and apparatus for providing, maintaining and upgrading the software lock of a microprocessor. When a processor upgrade occurs, software that was serialized to the previously installed processor detects that it is running on an unauthorized processor. The software initiates a reauthorization process based on a reauthorization use profile. The temporary re-enabling of the software is allowed if the authorization service is not available.

    Abstract: A user-removable CPU card includes a microprocessor and a bus bridge memory controller that allows the use of the microprocessor as a central processing unit of an electrical device (e.g. notebook PC or desktop PC). The user-removable CPU card includes a first connector that can be detachably coupled to a second connector in the electrical device, when the user-removable CPU card is inserted through an opening of the electrical device. When the electrical device is powered up subsequent to such insertion, the microprocessor on the user-removable CPU card functions as the central processing unit. Inclusion of a central processing unit of a computing device on a user-removable CPU card allows easy replacement of the CPU, for example, by simply opening a door and operating an eject mechanism, without disassembly of the housing. Therefore, a user can upgrade to a new central processing unit by simply ejecting a previously inserted user-removable CPU card and inserting a new user-removable CPU card, as easily as switching diskettes in the prior art (except for powering up the electrical device after such switching).

    Abstract: A computer overall system (100) includes client systems (102, 104, 106) which are centered around customer computers. Client systems are connectable through a communications network (114) with server systems (122, 124, 126) by way of a LAN (108, 116): wan (110, 118); or POTS (112, 120). Communications network (114) can be any type of interconnect which is connected to respective server system. A computer which is part of a client system or a server system, includes therein a microprocessor that is programmed by the manufacturer with various items of information regarding the microprocessor itself. This programmed information defines a predetermined capability for the computer where its predetermined capability is defined by a set of parameters maintained within the computer system including several parameters such as the maximum core frequency (i.e. which is a measure of the speed or how many megahertz the central processing unit of the microprocessor is capable of running at), the maximum instruction set, a description of all the features available from the microprocessor, and other information related to the maximum capabilities of the microprocessor and the system it can operate, as appropriate for the specific application, for example, microprocessor may have parameters which broadly or narrowly defined the client system or the server system of which the microprocessor is a part. The microprocessor could also be provided with a hard coded electronic encryption key. Similarly, as is also known to those skilled in the art, the microprocessor could be configurable by changing internal software to change the core frequency or to modify yet other features.

    Abstract: A method for choosing a particular server on a network and performing a remote boot by a client, the network including a plurality of servers operating in accordance with a plurality of network operating systems, includes identifying (36) each of the plurality of servers by address and by type of operating system, and selecting (37) one of the identified servers by address and type for booting on the network. Identifying further includes sending a FIND frame (32) from the client to the network, and receiving a FOUND frame (34) from each of the plurality of servers. A remote program load protocol followed by the server according to the FOUND frame is determined. Additionally, choosing a particular server on a network and performing a remote boot by a client includes identifying each of a plurality of servers according to characteristics of a FOUND frame including a frequency characteristic, selecting one of the identified servers, and performing a remote program load by a boot ROM on a client through the selected one of the identified plurality of servers. Identifying further includes determining whether a destination address of the FOUND frame is repeated in a same order in a data portion of the FOUND frame, wherein when the destination address is repeated in a same order, a frequency characteristic of the FOUND frame is determined.
