`
`ABSTRACT
`
`A System for protocol processing in a computer network has
`an intelligent network interface card (INIC) or communica
`tion processing device (CPD) associated with a host com
`puter. The INIC provides a fast-path that avoids protocol
`processing for most large multi-packet messages, greatly
`accelerating data communication. The INIC also assists the
`host for those message packets that are chosen for proceSS
`ing by host Software layers. A communication control block
`for a message is defined that allows DMA controllers of the
`INIC to move data, free of headers, directly to or from a
`destination or Source in the host. The context is Stored in the
`INIC as a communication control block (CCB) that can be
`passed back to the host for message processing by the host.
`The INIC contains specialized hardware circuits that are
`much faster at their specific tasks than a general purpose
`CPU. A preferred embodiment includes a trio of pipelined
`processors with Separate processors devoted to transmit,
`receive and management processing, with full duplex com
`munication for four fast Ethernet nodes.

`Writing to this address causes the program control logic to use Alu0ut as the

`Writing to this register alters the contents of the debug address register
`(DbgAddr) for the Cpu executing (OpdSell:0) cycles after the current
