Flow-based data packet filtering system and data packet filtering method by using Tilera multi-core accelerator card

Abstract

The invention discloses a flow-based data packet filtering system and data packet filtering method by using a Tilera multi-core accelerator card. The data packet filtering system is composed of a data packet acquisition module, a five-element content extraction module, a rule matching module, a flow table lookup and updating module, a PCIe data transmission module, a PCIe data package receiving module and a data packet storage module. In addition, the data packet filtering method is characterized in that data packet acquisition is carried out based on a heterogeneous system formed by the Tilera multi-core processor and a universal host and data packet filtering is carried out based a flow. Data packet acquisition in the mPIPE of the Tilera multi-core accelerator card is carried out; flow-based data packet filtering is realized by using the flow table on Tilera; the filtered data packet is transmitted to a universal computer by PCIe driving; and the data packet storage is realized on the universal computer. The system and method are suitable for the on-line flow analysis and storage in a ten-gigabit network environment.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a flow-based data packet filtering method under the environment of 10 gigabit network bandwidth. To be more precise, the traffic collection, flow-based data packet filtering and data packet storage methods under the heterogeneous architecture composed of the general host and the Tilera multi-core accelerator card embedded in the PCIe interface of the general host are used. Background technique [0002] With the development of the Internet, 10G network technology has gradually become the mainstream bandwidth technology, which brings challenges to network traffic management, real-time traffic analysis and traffic storage. Traditional network traffic collection and processing is the combination of ordinary network card and data collection software, such as Libpcap (library packet capture, data packet capture function library), BPF (Berkeley Packet Filter, Berkeley packet filter) and so on. However, as the link bandwidth increases...

Problems solved by technology

[0003] (1) I/O performance problem: The I/O performance of the traditional data packet collection and processing method is low, which is not enough to meet the I/O requirements of high-speed links

[0004] (2) Main memory performance problem (main memory capacity: several 10Gb traffic is generated per second under the high-speed link. When data packets are collected, the demand for main memory space is large. If the processing of the traffic application layer is considered, the main memory The demand for capacity will increase exponentially; memory access bandwidth: the number of memory accesses for network traffic proc
