Figure 4.1 High Level Diagram of Switch Core
The crossbar interconnect is a matrix of pathways, capable of concurrently transferring data among all
memory modules. The crossbar pathways are sized to sustain the throughput associated with a x8 Gen2
port.
In addition to the port IFBs and EFBs, the switch core crossbar provides interconnection interfaces for
two DMA modules. DMA module 0 is logically associated with function 2 of port 0. DMA module 1 is logi-
cally associated with function 2 of port 8. The DMA ingress interface carries TLPs emitted by a DMA
module, while the DMA egress interface carries TLPs destined to a DMA module.
Ingress Buffer
The switch core implements a per-port ingress buffer called the Ingress Frame Buffer (IFB). When a
packet is received from the link, the ingress port determines the packet’s route and subjects it to TC/VC
mapping. If a valid mapping to VC0 is found, the packet is then stored in the port’s IFB, together with its
routing and handling information (i.e., the packet’s descriptor).
