    Abstract: Methods, apparatus and computer program products implement embodiments of the present invention that enable a computer to receive a request to allocate one or more logical regions to a logical volume, and to verify, in response to the request, an availability on one or more storage devices of a number of physical regions corresponding to the one or more requested logical regions. In response to the verification, the one or more logical regions can be activated for write operations to a cache, so that any data written to the logical regions is stored to the cache. Subsequent to activating the one or more logical regions, one or more actual physical regions can be allocated to the logical volume. Upon allocating the one or more actual physical regions, any data stored in the cache can be destaged to the one or more actual physical regions.

    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method to process the placement and distribution of aligned DDP segment by a method which is different from placement and distribution of non-aligned DDP segment.
    SOLUTION: A network interface controller performs direct data placement for a memory when all segments connected specifically are aligned, i.e., carries out the cut-through without accessing a reassembly buffer, and moves the data through the reassembly buffer when all segments are non-aligned. The validation of CRC is performed for a majority of inbound DDP segments, then, the TCP acknowledgement response to confirm segment receiving can be transmitted. In the method to calculate the CRC value, each TCP segment starts with an aligned DDP segment, and the first two bytes of TCP payload is supposed to be an MPA length field of an MPA frame.

    Abstract: A network interface controller implementation (S152) that performs direct data placement to memory where all segments of a particular connection are aligned, i.e. cuts-through without accessing reassembly buffers (S159) (i.e., a "Fast" connection type), or if all segments are non-aligned moves data through reassembly buffer (S159) (i.e., "Slow" connection type). The type of connection can change from Fast to Slow and back. The implementation preferably conducts CRC validation (S154) for a majority of inbound DDP segments in the Fast connection before sending a TCP acknowledgement (S156) confirming segment reception. The method of computing a CRC value (S151) according to the present invention assumes that each TCP segment starts with an aligned DDP segment and that the first two bytes of a TCP payload is an MPA length field of an MPA frame.

    Abstract: An RNIC implementation that performs direct data placement to memory where all segments of a particular connection are aligned, or moves data through reassembly buffers where all segments of a particular connection are non-aligned. The type of connection that cuts-through without accessing the reassembly buffers is referred to as a "Fast" connection because it is highly likely to be aligned, while the other type is referred to as a "Slow" connection. When a consumer establishes a connection, it specifies a connection type (S2). The connection type can change from Fast to Slow and back. The invention reduces memory bandwidth, latency, error recovery using TCP retransmit and provides for a "graceful recovery" from an empty receive queue. The implementation also may conduct CRC validation (S11, S6) for a majority of inbound DDP segments in the Fast connection before sending a TCP acknowledgement (Ack) confirming segment reception.
