hellow, Can anyone tell me tht involving more than one microengine ( 5-8 threads ) to receive pkt's from the same mac port is correct .... i mean can we have more than 1 ME receiving pkt's frm same port and if we can do this then whether the RFIFO used wd. be different or same for these ME ( or for all these Threads).....and if the Rfifo is same then do i need to do sometime to have roper synchronisation or it wd. be automatically done..... basically i want to receive pkt. frm a single port but wanna involve more than 1 ME..... Do reply, if anyone know abt. this.... Take care Luv Nitin

Yes, it is possible to have more than one thread (even if they are on separate microengines) service a particular port. This is the strategy of the Libixprouter http://www.cs.princeton.edu/nsg/vera and (I think) of the Intel reference design. Zuki -- Yitzchak Gottlieb zuki@CS.Princeton.EDU
