Abstract
A network device includes packet processing circuitry and queue management circuitry. The packet processing circuitry is configured to transmit and receive packets to and from a network. The queue management circuitry is configured to store, in a memory, a queue for queuing data relating to processing of the packets, the queue including a primary buffer and an overflow buffer, to choose between a normal mode and an overflow mode based on a defined condition, to queue the data only in the primary buffer when operating in the normal mode, and, when operating in the overflow mode, to queue the data in a concatenation of the primary buffer and the overflow buffer.
