Embodiment 1

[0145] Fig. 1 is a block diagram of a packet communication system according to Embodiment 1 of the present invention. The packet communication system of FIG. 1 includes a memory 8 and a semiconductor integrated circuit 10 . The semiconductor integrated circuit 10 includes a communication section 2 , a processor 4 and a packet reception control device 100 . For example, processor 4 may be a CPU or a digital signal processor (DSP).

[0146] The communication section 2 transmits a packet to or receives a packet from the network, and outputs the received packet (reception packet) to the reception control device 100 . In addition, the communication section 2 also transmits or receives packets of data to or from the processor 4 and the memory 8 via the bus 6 as needed.

[0147] The packet reception control device 100 outputs the packet received from the communication section 2 to the memory 8 through the bus 6 . Processor 4 reads the data packets from memory 8 . The packet recep...

Abstract

The packet reception control device includes: a load detection section for detecting a load on a processor and outputting the detection result; and a reception control section for determining whether or not the processor should receive a reception packet based on the detection result output from the load detection section and outputting the determination result. The processor receives the reception packet according to the determination result output from the reception control section.

Description

[0001] Cross References to Related Applications [0002] This application claims the benefits of Patent Application No. 2004-279981 filed in Japan on September 27, 2004 and Patent Application No. 2005-264201 filed in Japan on September 12, 2005 under 35 U.S.C § 119 priority, the entire contents of which are hereby incorporated by reference. Background technique [0003] The present invention relates to techniques for controlling the receipt of data packets from a network. [0004] The trend of adding a function of establishing a connection with a network such as the Internet to conventionally existing devices is increasing year by year. With this trend, some problems arise in adding web interface functions to conventional devices. [0005] A typical example of a network is Ethernet compliant with Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) 802.3. Ethernet is a packet transmit / receive network, in which it is impossible to predict or guarantee the upcoming receiv...
