Device and Method for Remote Direct Memory Access - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18543594 titled 'Device and Method for Remote Direct Memory Access

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a patent application for an entity configured to maintain a time-based queue pair (QP) in an RDMA system. The time-based QP includes a first area with a time-based indication and holds one or more first WQEs, which are to be periodically processed based on the time-based indication.

  • The entity is configured to manage a time-based queue pair (QP) in an RDMA system.
  • The time-based QP includes a first area with a time-based indication.
  • The first area holds one or more first WQEs to be periodically processed.
  • The entity processes the first WQEs in the first area according to the time-based indication.

Possible Prior Art

Prior art in the field of RDMA systems may include existing technologies for managing queue pairs and processing work requests based on time-based indications.

Unanswered Questions

How does the entity handle errors or exceptions during the processing of WQEs?

The abstract does not provide information on how the entity deals with errors that may occur during the processing of work queue elements.

What is the scalability of this technology in terms of handling a large number of queue pairs simultaneously?

The abstract does not address the scalability of the entity in managing multiple time-based queue pairs concurrently.


Original Abstract Submitted

An entity for RDMA is configured to maintain a time-based queue pair (QP). The time-based QP comprises a first area associated with a time-based indication and is configured to hold one or more first WQEs. The time-based indication indicates that the one or more WQEs in the first area are to be periodically processed. The entity is further configured to periodically process the one or more first WQEs in the first area according to the time-based indication.
