Abstract
A method of operating a packet parser in a computing system includes providing a configurable packet pointer by the packet parser, the packet pointer configured to index a configurable number of atomic parsing elements, the atomic parsing elements having a configurable size, in a data stream received by the computing system for extraction, wherein the indexed atomic parsing elements are non-contiguous in the data stream; and receiving the extracted indexed atomic parsing elements from the data stream by the packet parser.
