Network Coprocessor consists of the following modules: • Packet Accelerator (PA) • Security Accelerator (SA) • Ethernet Subsystem • Packet DMA (PKTDMA) Controller
Purpose of the Network Coprocessor • MotivationbehindNETCP: • UsehardwareacceleratorstodoL2,L3,andL4processingandencryptionthatwaspreviouslyrequiredtobedoneinsoftware • GoalsforbothPacketAcceleratorandSecurityAccelerator: • OffloadDSPprocessingpower • Improvesystemintegration • Allowcostsavingsatthesystemlevel • ExpandDSPusabilitywithincurrentproducts • AllowDSPusageinnewproductareas • SecurityKeyapplications: • IPSectunnelendpoint(e.g.LTEeNB,...) • SecureRTP(SRTP)betweengateways • Airinterface(3GPP,Wimax)securityprocessing

Internet Protocol Classification Layers • Layer 2 (L2): Media Access Control (MAC) Layer • IEEE 802.3 standard • Layer 3 (L3): Internet Layer • Internet Protocol Version 4 (IPv4) • Internet Protocol Version 6 (IPv6) • Custom L3 Classification • Layer 4 (L4): Transport Layer • User Datagram Protocol (UDP) • Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) • Custom L4 Classification Example Packet L2 L3 L4 Data MAC IPv4 UDP Payload
Communication with the NETCP NETCP relies on QMSS and PKTDMA to communicate with the CorePac. • TX Queue Mapping • Q640: PDSP1 • Q641: PDSP2 • Q642: PDSP3 • Q643: PDSP4 • Q644: PDSP5 • Q645: PDSP6 • Q646: SASS0 • Q647: SASS1 • Q648: Switch • RX Queues • Can use any general purpose queues (Q864-Q8191) • Can also use other special purpose queues (e.g. 704-735) PKTDMA TX channels mapped to QMSS PA TX queues
