Glossary |
Sun Netra DPS Eclipse-based Teja Advance Development Environment (ADE) graphical user interface. Teja ADE views three Teja elements, hardware architecture, software architecture and mapping.
Authentication header/encapsulating security payload.
Application programming interface.
Header files and low-level Sun UltraSPARC T1 and Sun UltraSPARC T2 platform initialization and management code.
Chip multithreading for Sun UltraSPARC T1 systems.
Chip multithreading for Sun UltraSPARC T2 systems.
Threads receiving messages from a channel.
Chip support package. A target-specific section of the code generator aware of hardware features. CSP is responsible for generating thread startup code, mutexes, and so on.
Chip multithreading (CMT) debugger program. Sun Netra DPS native debugger is the default debugger and is useful for debugging during development,
Differentiated services code point.
An open source community where projects are focused on building extensive development platforms, runtimes, and application frameworks.
Encapsulating security payload.
GNU C Compiler for Sparc Systems.
GNU debugger that enables you to debug your program in C source code level.
Generic Routing Encapsulation application.
Interprocess, as in IP addresses.
Interprocess communication software mechanism that provides a means to communicate between processes that run in a domain under the Sun Netra DPS Runtime Environment and processes in a domain with a control plane operating system.
Provides primitives for the synchronization of distributed threads, communication, and memory allocation.
Lightweight Runtime Environment. Provides an ANSI C development environment for creating and scheduling application threads to run on individual strands on the UltraSPARC T series processor.
Message block. A data structure that carries packet information.
Negative-Acknowledge is sent by a station to indicate that an error was detected in the previously received block and that the receiver is ready to accept retransmission of that block.
Sun Netra Data Plane Software Suite. In this document, this suite is also referred to as Sun Netra DPS.
Consists of portable, target-independent abstractions over various operating system facilities such as thread management, heap-based memory management, time management, socket communication, and file descriptor registration and handling.
Sun Netra DPS traffic generator tool.
Network interface unit (Sun multithreaded 10GbE with network interface unit). Networking hardware consisting of a Receive Packet Classifier that performs L2/L3/L4 header parsing, matching, and searching functions.
A parked strand does not consume any pipeline cycles (an inactive strand).
The packet data serving node, or PDSN, is a component of a CDMA2000 mobile network. It acts as the connection point between the Radio Access and IP networks. This component is responsible for managing PPP sessions between the mobile provider core IP network and the mobile station.
Threads sending messages to a channel.
Request for Comments (RFC) documents are a series of memoranda encompassing new research, innovations, and methodologies applicable to Internet technologies.
Static Security Association Database.
Stream Control Transmission Protocol.
Consists of one or more source files. The source set is used to map to one or more processes.
Security Policy Database Cache.
Single Rate Three Color Marker.
A hardware thread, multistrand partitioning firmware for Sun CMT platforms.
Sun Netra DPS software package installed in the development server. Contains system-level libraries, header files, and low-level Sun UltraSPARC T1 and Sun UltraSPARC T2 platform code, and tools for compiler and runtime system.
Sun Netra DPS software package installed on the target deployment system. Contains the Sun Netra Data Plane CMT and IPC Share Memory Driver.
Sun Netra DPS software package containing the Sun UltraSPARC T2 cryptography driver.
Temary content addressable memory.
Transmission control protocol.
A compiler that provides the constructs of threads, mutex, queue, channel, and memory pool within the application code.
Teja NP 4.0 software platform used to develop scalable, high-performance C applications for embedded multiprocessor target architectures.
Runs in a process and is a target for executing a function. Thread management functions offer the ability to start and end threads dynamically.
Transparent Interprocess Communication protocol.
Contained in SUNWndpsd package and contains the Sun Netra Data Plane CMT and IPC share memory driver.
User/universal datagram protocol.
Processor that employs chip multithreading, or CMT, which combines chip multiprocessing (CMP) and hardware multithreading (MT). This processor creates a SPARC V9 processor with up to eight 4-way multithreaded cores for up to 32 simultaneous threads.
Processor that is the second generation of the CMT processor. In addition to features found in UltraSPARC T1, UltraSPARC T2 dramatically increases processing power by increasing the number of hardware strands in each core. UltraSPARC T2 includes on-chip 10G Ethernet and crypto accelerator.
