An example network adapter includes a processor and a hardware processing engine. The processor is configured to obtain a first input/output (I/O) command that indicates to write first data stored in a local server into at least one peer server, and to send first indication information to the hardware processing engine. The first indication information indicates the hardware processing engine to obtain the first data from the local server, and the indication information includes address information and length information that are of the first data and that are stored in the local server. The hardware processing engine is configured to directly process the first data when the first data is obtained from the local server based on the address information and the length information, and send the processed first data to the at least one peer server, where the first data is not stored in a memory of the network adapter.

Network adapter and data processing method of network adapter

A data processing method for a network adapter includes the network adapter that obtains a first input/output (I/O) command. The first I/O command instructs to write data stored in a local server to at least one remote server, and the first I/O command includes address information and length information that are of the data and that are stored in the local server. The network adapter splits the data based on the address information and the length information to obtain a plurality of groups of address information and length information. The network adapter obtains, from the local server based on the groups of address information and length information, data corresponding to the groups of address information and length information, and sends the data to the at least one remote server.

Data processing method for network adapter and network adapter

A data processing method includes sending, by a network interface card of a first device, a request packet to a second device. The request packet is used to request to read data in a destination storage area of the second device. The network interface card receives a response packet that is sent by the second device in response to the request packet. The response packet includes the data. The network interface card initiates, based on the response packet, direct memory access to a storage address to write the data into a memory area to which the storage address points. The first data does not need to be cached in a memory of the network interface card. Bandwidth resource usage and storage space usage of the memory of the network interface card can be reduced.

Data processing and writing method based on virtual machine memory identification field and devise

In a data access method, a processor of a host converts a first descriptor recognized by a virtual machine interface card of the virtual machine into a second descriptor recognized by a physical interface card of the host. The first descriptor includes a virtual machine physical memory address and a data length of accessible data. The physical interface card of the host obtains, based on the second descriptor, a physical address that is in a memory and to which the virtual machine physical memory address is mapped, and accesses the accessible data according to the physical address in the memory.

Data access method and apparatus

In a data center, a network interface card is utilized to assist processing of data packets. The server comprising a host and the network interface card connected to the host. The host is configured to generate processing information when receiving data packet from the network interface card, and send the processing information to the network interface card. The network interface card is configured to generate an action field and a match field of a session entry to process the data packet, based on the processing information sent by the host and the matching information of the data packet.

A virtual machine live migration method and a server, to resolve a problem that live migration of a virtual machine cannot be implemented in an SR-IOV technology scenario. According to the virtual machine live migration method and the server in the embodiments of the present invention, by setting a dirty write flag, a virtual PCIE device of a to-be-migrated virtual machine performs at least one read and write operation on received data; a virtual machine manager of the to-be-migrated virtual machine can identify a change in the data and migrate changed data to a destination virtual machine, thereby resolving a problem in the prior art that data cannot be migrated during a virtual machine live migration process because the data passes through the virtual PCIE device but the virtual machine manager cannot perceive the data.

Virtual machine live migration method, virtual machine memory data processing method, server, and virtual machine system

A method for managing a memory of a virtual machine, a physical host, a PCIE device and a configuration method thereof are provided. The method executed by a virtual machine includes: allocating a memory to a service carried on a PCIE device, where the memory includes multiple memory blocks, the multiple memory blocks is used to save working information of the service; generating a base address table BAT and a chip logic address table CLAT, where the BAT includes a CLAT entry base address corresponding to the service, and the CLAT includes a first address of each memory block; and sending an address of the BAT and a function number corresponding to the virtual machine to the PCIE device. Therefore, the PCIE device can obtain, according to the address of the BAT and the function number, working information of a service from the virtual machine.

Method for managing memory of virtual machine, physical host, PCIE device and configuration method thereof, and migration management device
