Method and apparatus for processing forwarding message

Abstract

The method comprises: 1) device driving process combines the batch message, and packages the information of first buffer saving the batch message and data unit into IPC message that is sent to the forwarding process; 2) the forwarding process processes and combines the batch message received by data communication device, and packages the information of second buffer saving the batch message and data unit into the IPC message that is sent to the device driving process; according to the data unit, the device driving process sends the message. The invention also reveals a forwarding message process module comprises: a device driving unit comprising a first batch process unit with a timer and / or counter and an attached first IPC setting module; and a forwarding unit comprising a second batch process unit with a timer and / or counter and an attached second IPC message setting module.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of communication, especially in data communication equipment, by simultaneously carrying and processing information of multiple messages in an inter-process communication (Inter-Process Communication, IPC for short) message, so as to realize efficient forwarding of messages methods and modules. Background technique [0002] For data communication devices, such as routers, switches, etc., the device drivers are related to hardware, and need to read and write device registers, resulting in the instability of the data communication device software system. Based on the current wide application of multi-process and multi-thread technology, since it uses the Memory Management Unit (MMU for short) to map memory pages, each process has a virtual address space independent of each other, which can improve the stability and reliability of the system Therefore, separating the device driver from the operating sy...
