Abstract
A co-processing module communicates with at least one remote device via an Ethernet communication link. The co-processing module includes a first processor that executes an application of the host device via a first operating system, the application including socket system calls. A second processor executes a second operating system to execute a transport control protocol/Internet protocol stack, an Ethernet driver, and an Ethernet media access control layer, to bidirectionally communicate first data via the Ethernet communication link and further to bidirectionally communicate the first data with the first processor. The first processor bidirectionally communicates the first data with the application via the socket system calls.
