Abstract
A method of processing incoming packets prior to complete reception, comprising receiving a pointer to one or more memory blocks allocated for storing one or more incoming packets to be written by one or more another controllers where each packet comprises one or more packet segments, determining all valid data values of fields contained in the packet segments. initializing one or more memory sections in the memory blocks which are mapped to the fields with predefined data pattern which are different from any of the valid values of the fields, checking continuously content of the memory sections, determining packet segment(s) were written in the memory block(s) responsive to detecting that the content of one or more of the memory sections do not match the one or more predefined data patterns, and processing one or more of the packets according to at least part of the received packet segment(s).
