Network Workloads in N6001

[fresher]

Hi Team,

I am using Intel N6001 SmartNIC, I have tested OFS design, and works accordingly as in documentation.
How can I add network offloads such tcp offload using OFS design ?
Is it possible to use OneAPI for this Hardware? If so, any documentation on devloping or implementing network offloads.

Thanks

Hi,

I would expect that you are using OFS platform then yes, you may OneAPI (https://ofs.github.io/ofs-2024.3-1/hw/common/user_guides/oneapi_asp/ug_oneapi_asp/). If you would like to use RTL to implement AFU then you may refer to https://ofs.github.io/ofs-2024.3-1/hw/common/user_guides/afu_dev/ug_dev_afu_ofs_agx7_pcie_attach/ug_dev_afu_ofs_agx7_pcie_attach/.

Thanks.

Hi,

May I know if you have any other queries?

Hi @JohnT_Intel, 
Thanks for the input.
It was helpful.
The example link shared shows working with OneAPI. Is there any example of network offloads performed with oneAPI and can I get the sample example performed using OneAPI for network based offloads. 

Is it even possible to perform the network offloads without Ethernet Controller. Since the example shared was having Ethernet Controller in N6001?

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

We only have sample of code in https://github.com/oneapi-src/oneAPI-samples/tree/master/DirectProgramming/C%2B%2BSYCL_FPGA. 

Yes, it is possible to offloads without Ethernet Controller but unfortunately, we do not have such example.
