Design Cores and Verification IP Support Preliminary IOV Specifications from PCI-SIG
"With the growth of computational power and the number of servers in storage environments, technologies to support current and future requirement for high-speed connectivity, such as IOV, becomes a critical requirement," remarks Jag Bolaria, senior analyst at The Linley Group. "Denali is paving the way with its IP solutions for PCI Express IO Virtualization technologies."
Denali's Databahn PCIe IOV cores and PureSpec PCIe verification IP products provide full support of the Address Translation Service specification, Single-Root I/O Virtualization specification, including physical and virtual function (VF) configuration spaces, VF Alternate Routing- ID, and Functional Level Reset (FLR) capabilities. These features will be highlighted at the PCI-SIG Developers' Conference, May 21-22 in San Jose, CA, by Denali's systems architect, Anujan Varma. Mr. Varma is scheduled to present two papers on advanced PCI Express technologies, including "LTSSM Implementation at 5Gb/s and Beyond" and "Single Root IOV Endpoint Implementation," which is based on an actual reference implementation of the IOV specification.
