US patent US12762081

Network interface device

Abstract

A network interface device comprises a streaming data processing path comprising a first data processing engine and hubs. A first scheduler associated with a first hub controls an output of data by the first hub to the first data processing engine and a second scheduler associated with a second hub controls an output of data by the second hub. The first hub is arranged upstream of the first data processing engine on the data processing path and is configured to receive data from a first upstream data path entity and from a first data processing entity implemented in programmable circuitry via a data ingress interface of the first hub. The first data processing engine is configured to receive data from the first hub, process the received data and output the processed data to the second hub arranged downstream of first data processing engine.
