    Abstract: Examples provide an application program interface or manner of negotiating locking or pinning or unlocking or unpinning of a cache region by which an application, software, or hardware. A cache region can be part of a level-1, level-2, lower or last level cache (LLC), or translation lookaside buffer (TLB) are locked (e.g., pinned) or unlocked (e.g., unpinned). A cache lock controller can respond to a request to lock or unlock a region of cache or TLB by indicating that the request is successful or not successful. If a request is not successful, the controller can provide feedback indicating one or more aspects of the request that are not permitted. The application, software, or hardware can submit another request, a modified request, based on the feedback to attempt to lock a portion of the cache or TLB.

    Abstract: Examples described herein relate to network layer 7 (L7) offload to an infrastructure processing unit (IPU) for a service mesh. An apparatus described herein includes an IPU comprising an IPU memory to store a routing table for a service mesh, the routing table to map shared memory address spaces of the IPU and a host device executing one or more microservices, wherein the service mesh provides an infrastructure layer for the one or more microservices executing on the host device; and one or more IPU cores communicably coupled to the IPU memory, the one or more IPU cores to: host a network L7 proxy endpoint for the service mesh, and communicate messages between the network L7 proxy endpoint and an L7 interface device of the one or more microservices by copying data between the shared memory address spaces of the IPU and the host device based on the routing table.
