Abstract
A network device receives an out of order transport packet encapsulating a protocol data unit (PDU) associated with a data stream, the PDU having a PDU header that is aligned with a beginning of a payload of the transport packet. The network device locates the PDU header disposed at the beginning of the payload of the transport packet, and verifies, using information in a header digest field of the PDU, validity of the PDU header. In response to verifying validity of the PDU header, the network device identifies, based on memory placement information included in the PDU header, a memory location for placing the data in a set of memory locations, in a memory, for storing data associated with the data stream. The network device then stores the first data beginning at the identified first memory location in the set of memory locations in the memory.
