Problems solved by technology

In the tree structure, there is only one path between any RC and EP. When the path fails, the RC and EP at both ends of the path cannot exchange data, resulting in poor system reliability.
[0003] In addition, if there are many EPs connected to the PCI Express switch, the bandwidth that each EP can occupy is limited by the total bandwidth of the switch.

Abstract

The present invention discloses a PCIE switching system, an apparatus and an switching method, wherein the system comprises: a plurality of the PCIE is switched to cell switching converter bridges PECB and a plurality of cell switching modules; in each PECB of the plurality of PECB is in communication connection with each cell switching module of the plurality of cell switching modules; the first PECB of the plurality PECB is used for receiving transaction layer pack packets, converting the transaction layer packets into cells, and sending the cells to at least one cell switching module of the plurality of cell switching modules; the at least one cell switching module of the plurality of cell switching modules is used receiving cells sent from the first PECB, and forwarding the cells to a second PECB according to the ID number, which is contained in the cell, of the second PECB in the plurality of PECB. According to the invention, it is possible to improve the reliability of the PCIE switching system, and solve the problem of bandwidth bottleneck between switches.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the communication field, in particular to a PCIE switching system, device and switching method. Background technique [0002] PCI Express (Peripheral Component Interconnect Express, external component fast interconnection bus, hereinafter referred to as PCIE) protocol, its transport layer is based on TLP (Transaction Layer Packet, transaction layer package) message for data exchange, using point-to-point communication mode, from RC ( Root Complex (root node) to EP (End Point, leaf node) is a tree network structure, RC can be directly connected to EP or connected to EP by connecting one or more switches (Switch), please refer to figure 1 . In the tree structure, there is only one path between any RC and EP. When the path fails, the RC and EP at both ends of the path cannot exchange data, resulting in poor system reliability. [0003] In addition, if there are many EPs connected to the PCI Express switch, the bandwidth ...
