Abstract
Apparatus and associated methods relating to data packet deparsing include an editing circuit configured to perform one or more predetermined editing operations on headers of an incoming data packet step by step without extracting all headers from the incoming data packet. In an illustrative example, an editor circuit may include an updating circuit configured to receive the data packet and update a header in the data packet. The editor circuit may also include a removal circuit configured to remove a header from the data packet. The editor circuit may also include an insertion circuit configured to insert one or more consecutive headers to the data packet. A state machine may be configured to enable or disable the updating circuit, the removal circuit, and/or the insertion circuit based on the predetermined editing operations. By using the editing circuit, packet deparsing may be performed with less hardware resources and low latency.
