Abstract

A computing system comprises one or more core processors coupled to a communication network among the cores via a switch in each core and switching circuitry to forward data among cores and switches. Features include a programmable classification processor for directing packets, techniques for managing virtual functions on an IO accelerator card, packet scheduling techniques, multi-processor communication using shared FIFOs, programmable duty cycle adjustment and delay adjustment circuits, a new class of instructions that use a ready bit, and cache coherence and memory ordering techniques.
