Abstract
Disclosed is an approach for implementing a flexible parser for a networking system. A micro-core parser is implemented to process packets in a networking system. The micro-cores of the parser read the packet headers, and perform any suitably programmed tasks upon those packets and packet headers. One or more caches may be associated with the micro-cores to hold the packet headers. A dependency list is used to maintain proper ordering of packets being processed by the micro-cores.
