Latest Patents

Among his latest patents is a method and system for communication between a computing device and a peripheral device. This invention provides methods and systems for a device to interface with a computing system. The device is designed to send an input/output status block (IOSB) and an interrupt message to the processor of a computing system upon the completion of an operation. It generates the interrupt message while the IOSB is waiting to be transmitted and transmits both using the same data path. Additionally, the device can detect requests from the processor to clear an interrupt status and can send messages to de-assert the interrupt status while clearing the hardware location. Another notable patent is the method and system of configuring virtual functions in peripheral devices. This invention includes a physical function (PF) representing a physical component assigned to an XF group, which consists of multiple virtual functions (VFs) associated with the PF.
