Description

一种多芯片封装结构、交换机 技术领域
本申请涉及芯片技术领域,尤其涉及一种多芯片封装结构、交换机。
背景技术
交换机(switch)是一种用于转发电信号或者光信号的网络设备,交换机上设置有多个接口,可以通过多个接口中的任一个接口实现数据的传输。最常见的交换机基于以太网传输数据的以太网交换机。交换机的接口可以直接与主机相连。交换机可以同时连通多对接口,使得每一对相互通信的主机之间进行无碰撞地传输数据。
交换机中设置有交换机芯片,交换机芯片的交换容量可以决定交换机的数据交换能力。交换机芯片的交换容量越大,交换机的数据交换能力越高,交换机可以设置的端口数量越多,其连接的主机的数量也会多。然而,不同类型的用户所需要的交换机的交换能力也有所不同,这样一来,需要根据不同用户的需求,制作具有相应交换容量的交换机芯片,从而不利于降低生产成本。
发明内容
本申请实施例提供一种多芯片封装结构、交换机,用于解决不同交换能力的交换机,需要制备相应交换容量的交换机芯片,导致制作成本较高的问题。
为达到上述目的,本申请采用如下技术方案:
本申请实施例的一方面,提供一种多芯片封装结构。该多芯片封装结构包括封装基板以及设置于封装基板上的至少多个交换机芯片。交换机芯片包括至少两个网络接口,以及至少一个芯片到芯片D2D接口。交换机芯片用于通过至少两个网络接口接入网络,且与网络之间收发数据。交换机芯片还用于通过至少一个D2D接口中的每个D2D接口与一个其他的交换机芯片相连,在彼此之间收发数据。交换机芯片还用于将接收自至少两个网络接口或至少一个D2D接口的数据,转发至至少两个网络接口和至少一个D2D接口中的至少一个接口。在此情况下,当交换机中设置有一个交换机芯片时,该交换机芯片的交换带宽即为交换机的实际交换带宽。此时,该交换机芯片的D2D接口可以处于空置的状态,而不与其他芯片进行电连接。当交换机中设置多个交换带宽相同,且通过各自的D2D接口可以依次首尾电连接的交换机芯片时,该交换机的实际交换带宽为其内部的各个交换机芯片的交换带宽之和。这样一来,本申请实施例提供的方案中,为了得到交换带宽不同的交换机,无需针对不同的交换带宽单独制作对应的交换机芯片。而只需要生产一种交换机芯片,并根据交换机交换带宽的需求,设置交换机中交换机芯片的数量,并将多个交换带宽相同的交换机芯片,通过各自的D2D接口电连接,就可以得到一系列的交换带宽不同的交换机,达到降低成本的目的。并且,同一个多芯片封装结构中,所有交换机芯片的D2D接口依次首尾电连接。这样一来,可以使得多芯片封装结构的交换带宽为该多芯片封装结构中所有交换机芯片的交换带宽之和,从而可以使得整个交换机的交换带宽更大,例如可以达到50Tbps、100 Tbps甚至更大。
可选的,交换机芯片还包括控制逻辑,控制逻辑用于:从接收的数据中获取接收的数据的目的信息。然后,根据目的信息确定发送端口,发送端口包括当前的交换机芯片中的至少一个D2D接口和至少两个网络接口,再将接收的数据通过发送端口发送。从而可以使得交换机芯片实现数据的转发和交换过程。
可选的,多个交换机芯片包括源交换机芯片和目的交换机芯片。源交换机芯片根据目的信息确定发送端口之后,源交换机芯片的控制逻辑还用于:确定源交换机芯片和目的交换机芯片之间的至少一条发送路径,对接收的数据进行排队缓存,并向目的交换机芯片发送调度请求。此外,在目的交换机芯片将接收的数据通过发送端口发送之前,目的交换机芯片的控制逻辑还用于:根据调度请求以及目的交流换机芯片的带宽生成调度结果;源交换机芯片的控制逻辑还用于:根据调度结果,使得接收的数据从队列中出队,将接收的数据通过至少一条发送路径,发送至目的交换机芯片。这样一来,多个交换机芯片之间可以通过发送调度请求、生成调度结果以及根据调度结果发送数据,从而实现多个电连接的交换机芯片之间的数据交换。
可选的,多芯片封装结构包括四个交换机芯片。每个交换机芯片包括两个D2D接口,用于分别与其他两个交换机芯片的D2D接口相连接。四个交换机芯片依次收尾电连接。这样一来,彼此电连接的两个交换机芯片相邻,所以用于将相邻两个交换机芯片电连接在一起的金属引线的长度可以不用太长,从而能够提高信号的传输效率。
可选的,源交换机芯片与目的交换机芯片相邻。源交换机芯片的控制逻辑具体用于:确定的一条发送路径,将接收的数据通过发送路径,发送至目的交换机芯片;其中,发送路径包括:从源交换机芯片到目的交换机芯片。这样一来,通过上述发送路径可以实现相邻交换机芯片之间的数据转发。
可选的,四个交换机芯片中,源交换机芯片和目的交换机芯片之间间隔有一个中间交换机芯片。源交换机芯片的控制逻辑具体用于:确定的一条发送路径,将接收的数据通过发送路径,发送至目的交换机芯片;其中,发送路径包括:从源交换机芯片,经过中间交换机芯片到目的交换机芯片。这样一来,通过上述第一发送路径可以实现间隔设置的两个交换机芯片之间的数据转发。
可选的,四个交换机芯片中,沿第一方向,源交换机芯片和目的交换机芯片之间间隔有第一中间交换机芯片,沿第二方向,源交换机芯片和目的交换机芯片之间间隔有第二中间交换机芯片;其中,第一方向和第二方向相反。源交换机芯片的控制逻辑具体用于:确定的第一发送路径,将接收的数据的一部分通过第一发送路径,发送至目的交换机芯片。其中,第一发送路径包括:从源交换机芯片,经过第一中间交换机芯片到目的交换机芯片。确定的第二发送路径,将接收的数据的另一部分通过第二发送路径,发送至目的交换机芯片。其中,第二发送路径包括:从源交换机芯片,经过第二中间交换机芯片到目的交换机芯片。这样一来,由于第一发送路径和第二发送路径的数据传输方向相反,因此当交换机中不相邻的交换机芯片之间进行数据转发时,一部分数据的流量可以沿第一发送路径进行传输,另一部分的流量可以沿第二发送路径进行转发,提高数据的传输效率。
可选的,所述交换机芯片还包括交换缓存单元以及传输链路。其中,交换缓存单 元用于执行上述发送调度请求、生成调度结果以及根据调度结果发送数据的控制逻辑。传输链路与D2D接口以及交换缓存单元电连接,传输链路用于D2D接口与交换缓存单元之间,以及不同D2D接口之间收发数据。多个交换机芯片之间交换的数据可以通过传输链路进行传输。
可选的,传输链路包括第一链路和第二链路。第一链路包括依次电连接的第一接收端媒体访问控制MAC接口、第一缓冲器以及第一发送端MAC接口。第一接收端MAC接口和第一发送端MAC接口与交换机芯片的两个D2D接口分别电连接。第一接收端MAC接口、第一缓冲器还与交换缓存单元电连接。这样一来,交换机中的多个交换机芯片的第一接收端MAC接口、第一发送端MAC依次电连接,从而可以将多个交换机芯片的第一链路电连接,使得多个交换机芯片的数据可以通过第一链路在不同的交换机芯片中进行传输。并且,缓存于第一缓冲器中的数据可以采用FIFO的方式在第一缓冲器中进行排队,并发送至该交换机芯片的第一发送端MAC接口,从而可以避免来自第一接收端MAC接口以及输出缓存处理单元的数据发生冲突。此外,第二链路中数据的传输方向与第一链路中数据的传输方向相反。第二链路包括依次电连接的第二接收端MAC接口、第二缓冲器以及第二发送端MAC接口。第二接收端MAC接口和第二发送端MAC接口与交换机芯片的两个D2D接口分别电连接。第二接收端MAC接口和第二缓冲器还与交换缓存单元电连接。第二链路和第二缓冲器的技术效果同理可得,此处不再赘述。此外,由于第二链路中数据的传输方向与第一链路中数据的传输方向相反,因此当交换机中不相邻的交换机芯片之间进行数据转发时,一部分数据的流量可以沿第一链路进行传输,另一部分的流量可以沿第二链路进行转发,提高数据的传输效率。
可选的,四个交换机芯片以2×2矩阵形式进行排列。多芯片封装结构中,四个交换机芯片的第一链路依次首尾电连接呈环状。四个交换机芯片的第二链路依次首尾电连接呈环状。这样一来,一个交换机芯片可以与其左边(或右边),以及上边(或下边)的另一个交换机芯片通过第一链路、第二链路电连接在一起。由于彼此电连接的两个交换机芯片相邻,所以用于将相邻两个交换机芯片电连接在一起的金属引线的长度可以不用太长,从而能够提高信号的传输效率。
可选的,交换机芯片还包括转发处理单元、第三接收端MAC接口以及第三发送端MAC接口。转发处理单元用于执行上述数据转发的控制逻辑。例如根据来自网络接口的数据的源地址,获取其目的地址,并将数据写入至交换缓存单元。当交换机芯片执行二层转发时,该转发处理单元可以读取数据包包头中的源MAC地址,再读取该数据包包头中的目的MAC地址,并在MAC地址表中查找与该目的MAC地址相应的接口。或者,当交换机芯片执行三层转发时,该转发处理单元可以读取数据包包头中的源IP地址,再读取该数据包包头中的目的IP地址,并在IP地址表中查找与该目的MAC地址相应的接口。此外,转发处理单元与网络接口、交换缓存单元电连接。该转发处理单元用于对从交换缓存单元中读取数据并发送至网络接口。当交换机芯片进行三层转发时,转发处理单元需要改变数据包包头中的源MAC地址以及目的MAC地址,以完成二层封装。第三接收端MAC接口与网络接口和转发处理单元电连接,用于将来自所述网络接口的数据传输至转发处理单元。第三发送端MAC接口与网络 接口和转发处理单元电连接,用于将来自转发处理单元的数据传输至网络接口。
可选的,多芯片封装结构多芯片封装结构多芯片封装结构多芯片封装结构可选的,多芯片封装结构中,任意两个交换机芯片的交换带宽相同。这样一来,只需要生产一种交换机芯片,并根据交换机交换带宽的需求,设置交换机中交换机芯片的数量,并将多个交换带宽相同的交换机芯片,通能过各自的D2D接口电连接,就可以得到一系列的交换带宽不同的交换机,达到降低成本的目的。
可选的,多芯片封装结构还包括多个光模块设置于封装基板上,且与交换机芯片位于同一侧。这样一来,通过将光模块和交换机芯片封装在同一个多芯片封装结构中,可以使得交换机具有更大交换带宽的光接口。
本申请实施例的另一方面,提供一种交换机。该交换机包括电路板以及设置于电路板上的上所述的任意一种多芯片封装结构。该交换机具有与前述实施例提供的交换机芯片相同的技术效果,此处不再赘述。
本申请实施例的又一方面,提供一种交换机。该交换机包括电路板以及设置于电路板上的至少两个如上所述的多芯片封装结构。该电路板上所有的交换机芯片的D2D接口依次首尾电连接。该交换机具有与前述实施例提供的交换机芯片相同的技术效果,此处不再赘述。
可选的,同一电路板上,任意两个交换机芯片的交换带宽相同。这样一来,可以使得交换机的交换带宽为该交换机中所有交换机芯片的交换带宽之和,从而可以使得整个交换机的交换带宽更大,例如可以达到50Tbps、100Tbps甚至更大。

在本申请实施例提供的上述交换机10,如图2所示,可以包括电路板12,例如印刷电路板(printed circuit board,PCB),以及设置于该电路板12上的至少一个芯片封装(package)结构20。该多芯片封装结构20可以包括封装基板(substrate)201,以及设置于该封装基板201上的至少一个交换机芯片(die或chiplet)202。
本申请实施例中,该多芯片封装结构20中的任意一个交换机芯片202如图3a所示,可以包括至少两个网络接口30和至少一个芯片到芯片(die-to-die,D2D)接口31。上述网络接口30和D2D接口31作为开放式系统互联通信参考模型(open system interconnection reference model,OSI model)的物理层接口。
其中,交换机芯片202用于通过上述至少两个网络接口30接入网络(例如以太网),且与网络之间收发数据。例如,上述网络接口30可以与图1所示的物理以太网接口101电连接,网络接口30可以接收以太网中的各个电子设备11发送的数据。或者,网络接口30可以将数据发送至上述各个电子设备11。
示例的,上述网络接口30可以为串行器/解串器(serializer-deserializer,SerDes)接口。例如,上述网络接口30可以为SerDes接口中,用于将芯片与可插拔的光模块相连接的甚短距离(very short reach,VSR)接口。以下为了方便说明,附图中均是以网络接口采用VSR接口为例进行举例。
在本发明实施例中,一个交换机芯片202中可以包括至少一个D2D接口31和至少两个网络接口30。一个交换芯片202通过至少一个D2D接口31中的每个D2D接口 31与其他的一个交换机芯片相连,而通过两个网络接口30分别与交换机10的两个太网接口101相连。交换机芯片202用于通过至少一个D2D接口31中的每个D2D接口31与一个其他的交换机芯片202相连,在彼此之间收发数据。此外,交换机芯片202还用于将接收自至少两个网络接口30或至少一个D2D接口31的数据,转发至至少两个网络接口30和至少一个D2D接口31中的至少一个接口。
为了方便说明,以下均是以一个交换机芯片202包括一个D2D接口31和两个网络接口30为例。在此情况下,来自不同网络接口30的数据,可以通过D2D接口31与其他的交换机芯片202交换数据,并与至少两个接收机的端口与外部网络收发数据。
由此可知,D2D接口31可以用于将两个交换机芯片202之间电连接,即die to die。本申请实施例中,D2D接口31可以为SerDes接口,例如,D2D可以为SerDes接口中,用于实现芯片间电连接的超短距(extreme short reach,XSR)接口,该XSR接口之间制作于PCB12上的走线长度可以为0~50mm。或者,D2D接口31还可以为并行接口,例如,高级接口总线(advanced interface bus,AIB)。
基于此,本申请实施例提供的交换机芯片202可以包括处理器,该处理器中的转发处理单元可以用于执行控制逻辑。该控制逻辑用于从网络接口30或D2D接口31接收的数据中获取该接收的数据的目的信息。例如,该目的信息可以为接收的数据的目的地址。然后,上述控制逻辑可以用于根据该目的信息确定发送端口。其中,发送端口包括当前的交换机芯片中的上述至少一个D2D接口31和上述至少两个网络接口30。接下来,上述控制逻辑还用于将接收的数据通过上述发送端口发送,从而实现数据转发过程。
需要说明的是,本申请实施例中,当芯片封装结构20中封装有多个交换机芯片202时,该芯片封装结构20可以为将多个交换机芯片202直接设置于封装基板(substrate)上的,多芯片合封(multi-chip module,MCM)结构。或者,芯片封装结构20可以为采用包含硅载板的封装(chip on wafer on substrate,COWOS)技术,将多个交换机芯片202设置于转接板(interposer)上的2.5D封装结构。又或者,在另一些实施例中,上述芯片封装结构20可以为采用扇出型封装(fan out package,FOP)技术,将多个交换机芯片202设置于重布线层(redistribution layer,RDL)上的扇出型封装结构。又或者,上述芯片封装结构20可以为在封装基板中设置连接器,并通过连接器将多个设置于封装基板上的交换机芯片202电连接的,嵌入式多芯片互连桥接(embedded multi-die interconnect bridge,EMIB)封装结构。
在此基础上,当交换机10包括至少两个交换机芯片,例如,如图3b所示的交换机芯片202a和交换机芯片202b时,同一PCB12上的任意两个交换机芯片的交换带宽可以相同,例如均为12.8Tpbs。以下根据交换机10的交换带宽的不同需求,对该交换机10内多个交换机芯片202的设置方式进行举例说明。
需要说明的是,本申请中交换机10的交换带宽用于衡量交换机10总的数据交换能力。例如,当交换机10的交换带宽为50Tbps时,交换机10的数据传输速率为每秒50兆位。
示例一
本示例中,交换机10预设的交换带宽为50Tbps。交换机10可以包括一个如图4 所示的多芯片封装结构20。此时,该多芯片封装结构20可以包括位于同一个封装基板201上的四个交换机芯片,分别为交换机芯片202-A,交换机芯片202-B,交换机芯片202-C以及交换机芯片202-D。
在此情况下,为了使得交换机10的实际交换带宽可以达到上述预设的交换带宽(例如,50Tbps),该多芯片封装结构20中的交换机芯片202-A,交换机芯片202-B,交换机芯片202-C以及交换机芯片202-D,可以均为采用7nm(芯片中晶体管的最小线宽)芯片制备工艺制备的交换带宽为12.8Tbps的芯片。
基于此,多芯片封装结构20中的交换机芯片202-A,交换机芯片202-B,交换机芯片202-C以及交换机芯片202-D的D2D接口31依次首尾(one by one)电连接形成一个环形总线100。例如,交换机芯片202-A的D2D接口31与交换机芯片202-B的D2D接口31电连接。交换机芯片202-B的D2D接口31与交换机芯片202-C的D2D接口31电连接。交换机芯片202-C的D2D接口31与交换机芯片202-D的D2D接口31电连接。
在本申请的一些实施例中,在用于发送数据的源交换机芯片和用于接收数据的目的交换机芯片相邻的情况下,例如,作为源交换机芯片的交换机芯片202-A,可以直接向作为目的交换机芯片的交换机芯片202-B发送数据。或者,在本申请的另一些实施例中,在源交换机芯片和目的交换机芯片之间间隔有中间交换机芯片的情况下,例如,作为源交换机芯片的交换机芯片202-A,向作为目的交换机芯片的交换机芯片202-C发送数据时,交换机芯片202-A发送的数据可以沿顺时针的方向,经过作为第一中间交换机芯片的交换机芯片202-B后,传递至交换机芯片202-C。或者,交换机芯片202-A发送的数据可以沿逆时针的方向,经过作为第二中间交换机芯片的交换机芯片202-D后,传递至交换机芯片202-C。又或者,作为源交换机芯片的交换机芯片202-A发送数据的一部分可以沿顺时针的方向,通过作为第一中间交换机芯片的交换机芯片202-B后,传递至交换机芯片202-C。上述数据的另一部分可以沿逆时针的方向,通过作为第二中间交换机芯片的交换机芯片202-D后,传递至交换机芯片202-C。
上述交换机芯片202-A,交换机芯片202-B,交换机芯片202-C以及交换机芯片202-D中任意一个交换机芯片的D2D接口31可以为128L-112G-XSR接口。其中,128L-112G-XSR接口表示的是128路(lane)XSR接口,每一路XSR接口的数据传输速率为112Gbps。这样一来,相邻两个电连接的D2D接口31之间形成的传输电路单向传输数据的带宽为14.3Tbps(128×112=14.3Tbps)。此时,上述传输链路可以在单向传输数据,例如接收数据,或者发送数据时用于承载每个交换机芯片的12.8Tbps的以太网流量。并且,剩余的流量1.5Tbps(14.3Tbps-12.8Tbps=1.5Tbps),可以用于内部消耗(over header)。
需要说明的是,多个交换机芯片的D2D接口31之间,传输的数据其包头上带有地址,该地址需要占用一些字节。此外,上述多个交换机芯片的D2D接口31之间除了传输数据以外,还需要传输与该数据相关的调度指令以及调度结果。该调度指令以及调度结果同样需要占用一些字节。因此,上述用于内部消耗的流量可以是用于传输与数据相关的地址、调度指令以及调度结果。示例的,每个交换机芯片的D2D接口31传输流量的余量可以为该交换机芯片的交换带宽,例如12.8Tbps的10%左右。上述 与数据相关的地址、调度指令以及调度结果会在之后对实施例中进行详细的说明。
然而,上述环形总线100上,任意一个交换机芯片的D2D接口31即可以接收数据,又可以发送数据。因此相邻两个电连接的D2D接口31同时收发数据时,形成的传输链路双向带宽为2个14.3Tbps。此外,环形总线100上,任意一个交换机芯片即可以作为源交换机芯片,同时也可以作为目的交换机芯片。当环形总线100上的4个交换机芯片同时接受和发送数据时,上述环形总线100上形成的传输链路的带宽可以为8(2×4)个14.3Tbps。此时,多芯片封装结构20中每个D2D接口31均处于收发数据的状态。
考虑到交换机10内部形成的上述传输链路的带宽具有加速比,所以交换机10对外实际体现的总的交换带宽,为其内部的各个交换机芯片202的交换带宽之和。例如,4个14.3Tbps,即51.2Tbps(4×14.3=51.2Tbps)的交换带宽,使得该交换机10具有51.2Tbps的线速无阻塞交换能力,且该交换带宽大于交换机10的预设的交换带宽(例如,50Tbps)。
此外,本申请实施例中的交换机芯片202在封装基板201或者PCB上的垂直投影的形状可以为长方形或者正方形,本申请实施例对此不作限定。以交换机芯片202在封装基板201或者PCB上的垂直投影的形状可以为长方形为例,示例的,如图4所示,该多芯片封装结构20中,交换机芯片202-A,交换机芯片202-B,交换机芯片202-C以及交换机芯片202-D中的任意一个交换机芯片的短边L1可以为25.5mm,长边L2可以为27.5mm。以下为了方便说明,大部分实施例是以上述交换机芯片在封装基板201或者PCB上的垂直投影的形状为长方形为例进行的说明。
此外,示例的,上述交换机芯片202-A,交换机芯片202-B,交换机芯片202-C以及交换机芯片202-D中任意一个交换机芯片的网络接口30可以为64L-112G-VSR接口,或者,128L-112G-VSR接口。其中,64L-112G-VSR接口表示的是64路VSR接口,每一路VSR接口的数据传输速率为112Gbps。此时,网络接口30的单向数据传输的带宽为7.168Tbps(64×112=7.168Tbps)。
此外,128L-112G-VSR接口表示的是128路VSR接口,每一路VSR接口的数据传输速率为112Gbps。此时,网络接口30的单向数据传输的带宽为14.3Tbps(128×112=14.3Tbps)。网络接口30的单向数据传输的带宽可以根据与该网络接口30电连接的电子设备11传输流量的大小进行设定,本申请对此不作限定。
示例二
本示例中,交换机10预设的交换带宽为50Tbps。交换机10可以包括两个多芯片封装结构,分别为如图5所示的多芯片封装结构20a和多芯片封装结构20b。其中,每个多芯片封装结构可以包括两个交换机芯片。例如,多芯片封装结构20a中包括交换机芯片202-A和交换机芯片202-D,多芯片封装结构20b中包括交换机芯片202-B和交换机芯片202-C。
此外,每个多芯片封装结构中的任意两个交换机芯片的交换带宽可以相同。并且,不同多芯片封装结构之间,任意两个交换机芯片的交换带宽可以相同。这样一来,交换机10中所有交换机芯片的交换带宽可以均相等。在此情况下,上述交换机芯片202-A,交换机芯片202-B,交换机芯片202-C以及交换机芯片202-D,可以均为采用 7nm芯片制备工艺制备的交换带宽为12.8Tbps的芯片。
并且,交换机10中的电路板12上,所有的交换机芯片的D2D接口31依次首尾电连接形成一个环形总线100。例如,多芯片封装结构20a中的交换机芯片202-A的D2D接口31与交换机芯片202-B的D2D接口31电连接。多芯片封装结构20a中的交换机芯片202-B的D2D接口31与多芯片封装结构20b中的交换机芯片202-C的D2D接口31电连接。多芯片封装结构20b中的交换机芯片202-C的D2D接口31与多芯片封装结构20a中的交换机芯片202-D的D2D接口31电连接。
由上述可知,示例一和示例二中的交换机10预设的交换带宽均为50Tbps,该交换机10均包括四个交换机芯片(换机芯片202-A,交换机芯片202-B,交换机芯片202-C以及交换机芯片202-D),且每个交换机芯片的交换带宽均为12.8Tbps。不同之处在于,示例一中,四个交换机芯片均合封于在同一个多芯片封装结构20中。这样一来,上述多芯片封装结构的总功耗可能会超过1000W,总功耗较大。示例二中,上述四个交换机芯片,两两分别合封于多芯片封装结构20a和多芯片封装结构20b中,使得每个多芯片封装结构中封装有两个交换机芯片,进而可以使得每个多芯片封装结构的功耗降低一半,例如降低至500W左右。
综上所述,当交换机10中设置有一个交换机芯片202时,该交换机芯片202的交换带宽,例如12.8Tbps,即为交换机10的实际交换带宽。此时,该交换机芯片202的D2D接口31可以处于空置的状态,而不与其他芯片进行电连接。当交换机10中设置多个交换带宽相同,且通过各自的D2D接口31依次首尾电连接的交换机芯片202时,该交换机10的实际交换带宽为其内部的各个交换机芯片202的交换带宽之和。
例如,当交换机10中设置有两个交换机芯片202(12.8Tbps)时,该交换机10的实际交换带宽为25.6Tbps(2×12.8Tbps)。或者,当交换机10中设置有三个交换机芯片202(12.8Tbps)时,该交换机10的实际交换带宽为38.4Tbps(3×12.8Tbps)。或者,当交换机10中设置有四个交换机芯片202(12.8Tbps)时,该交换机10的实际交换带宽为51.2Tbps(4×12.8Tbps)。
交换机10中设置其余数量的交换机芯片202的方式同上所述,此处不再赘述。其中,当交换机10中设置有多个交换机芯片202时,上述多个交换机芯片202可以采用示例一的方式均合封于同一个多芯片封装结构中。或者,也可以采用示例二的方式合封于不同的多芯片封装结构中。
这样一来,本申请实施例提供的方案中,为了得到交换带宽不同的交换机10,无需针对不同的交换带宽单独制作对应的交换机芯片。而只需要生产一种交换机芯片202(例如,交换带宽为12.8Tbps),根据交换机10交换带宽的需求,设置交换机10中交换机芯片202的数量。然后,将多个交换带宽相同的交换机芯片202采用上述方式依次首尾电连接,就可以得到一系列的交换带宽不同的交换机10,达到降低成本的目的。
上述是以交换机10预设的交换带宽为50Tbps为例,对该交换机10中交换机芯片202的设置方式进行的举例说明。以下对具有其他预设的交换带宽的交换机10的设置方式进行举例说明。
示例三
本示例中,交换机10预设的交换带宽为100Tbps。交换机10可以包括一个多芯片封装结构20。此时,该多芯片封装结构20可以包括位于同一个封装基板201上的四个交换机芯片,分别为如图4所示的交换机芯片202-A,交换机芯片202-B,交换机芯片202-C以及交换机芯片202-D。
在此情况下,为了使得交换机10的实际交换带宽可以达到上述预设的交换带宽(例如,100Tbps),该多芯片封装结构20中的交换机芯片202-A,交换机芯片202-B,交换机芯片202-C以及交换机芯片202-D,可以均为采用5nm(芯片中晶体管的最小线宽)芯片制备工艺制备的交换带宽为25.6Tbps的芯片。这样一来,4个25.6Tbps的交换机芯片的总的交换带宽为4×25.6Tbps(4×25.6=102.4Tbps),可以大于预设的交换带宽(例如,100Tbps)。
同理,多芯片封装结构20中的交换机芯片202-A,交换机芯片202-B,交换机芯片202-C以及交换机芯片202-D的D2D接口31依次首尾电连接形成一个环形总线100。
本示例中,上述交换机芯片202-A,交换机芯片202-B,交换机芯片202-C以及交换机芯片202-D中任意一个交换机芯片的D2D接口31可以为256L-112G-XSR接口。其中,256L-112G-XSR接口表示的是256路XSR接口,每一路XSR接口的数据传输速率为112Gbps。这样一来,相邻两个电连接的D2D接口31之间形成的传输电路单向带宽为28.6Tbps(256×112=28.6Tbps)。此时,上述传输链路可以在接收数据,或者发送数据时用于承载每个交换机芯片的25.6Tbps的以太网流量。并且,剩余的流量3Tbps(28.6Tbps-25.6Tbps=3Tbps),可以用于上述内部消耗。
此外,示例的,上述交换机芯片202-A,交换机芯片202-B,交换机芯片202-C以及交换机芯片202-D中任意一个交换机芯片的网络接口30可以为128L-112G-VSR接口。
同理,上述将四个交换机芯片均合封于在同一个多芯片封装结构20中。这样一来,该多芯片封装结构20的总功耗可能会超过2000W,总功耗较大。因此为了降低单个多芯片封装结构的功耗,可以上述四个交换机芯片,两两分别合封于两个不同的多芯片封装结构中,同上所述可以使得每个多芯片封装结构中封装有两个交换机芯片,进而可以使得每个多芯片封装结构的功耗降低一半,例如降低至1000W左右。
上述示例一、示例二以及示例三中的多芯片封装结构20中均是以只合封有交换机芯片202为例进行的说明。在本申请的另一些实施例中,上述多芯片封装结构20中除了设置有交换机芯片202以外,还可以合封其他部件。以下对合封有其他部件的多芯片封装结构20以及具有该多芯片封装结构20的交换机10的结构进行说明。
示例四
本示例中,交换机10中的至少一个多芯片封装结构20中,不仅封装有如图6所示的交换机芯片202,还封装有多个光引擎(optical engine,OE)203。在此情况下,上述多个OE203与交换机芯片202设置于封装基板201的同一侧,可以通过封装基板201实现信号互联。
其中,每一个OE203可以作为至少一个光接口用于与光纤连接。该OE203还用于接收光纤中的光信号,并将该光信号转换成电信号。并且,通过封装基板201接收 交换机芯片202输出的电信号,并将该电信号转换成光信号,传输至上述光纤中,从而可以进行光信号的收发和处理。
示例的,如图7所示,交换机10预设的交换带宽为100Tbps。交换机10可以包括一个多芯片封装结构20。同理,该多芯片封装结构20可以包括位于同一个封装基板201上的四个交换机芯片,分别为如图7所示的交换机芯片202-A,交换机芯片202-B,交换机芯片202-C以及交换机芯片202-D。上述任意一个交换机芯片的交换带宽可以为25.6Tbps。上述交换机芯片202-A,交换机芯片202-B,交换机芯片202-C以及交换机芯片202-D通过各自的D2D接口31依次首尾电连接的方式同上所述,此处不再赘述。
本示例中,上述任意一个交换机芯片在封装基板201或者PCB上的垂直投影的形状可以为正方形。示例的,该多芯片封装结构20中,交换机芯片202-A,交换机芯片202-B,交换机芯片202-C以及交换机芯片202-D中的任意一个交换机芯片的任意一边的边长可以为26mm。
此外,在本申请的一些实施例中,上述多芯片封装结构20中还可以合封有32个OE203。在一个OE203作为4个光接口,且每个光接口的交换带宽为800Gbps时,一个OE203的交换带宽为3.2Tbps(4×800Gbps=3.2Tbps)。在此情况下,该交换机10可以具有128个(32×4=128个)交换带宽为800Gbps的光接口。
或者,在本申请的另一些实施例中,上述多芯片封装结构20中还可以合封有32个OE203。在一个OE203作为8个光接口,且每个光接口的交换带宽为400Gbps时,一个OE203的交换带宽为3.2Tbps(8×400Gbps=3.2Tbps)。在此情况下,该交换机10可以具有128个(32×8=256个)交换带宽为400Gbps的光接口。
又或者,在本申请的另一些实施例中,上述多芯片封装结构20中还可以合封有64个OE203。在一个OE203作为4个光接口,且每个光接口的交换带宽为400G时,一个OE203的交换带宽为1.6Tbps(4×400Gbps=1.6Tbps)。在此情况下,该交换机10可以具有128个(64×4=256个)交换带宽为400Gbps的光接口。
需要说明的是,上述仅仅是对多芯片封装结构20中合封的OE203的数量和其交换带宽的举例说明,其它示例在此不再一一赘述。
[根据细则91更正 04.09.2020] 
由上述可知,通过在交换机10的多芯片封装结构20中设置多个交换机芯片202,且交换机10中的各个交换机芯片202可以通过D2D接口31电连接,可以使得交换机10的交换带宽达到50Tbps、100Tbps甚至更大。而目前采用7nm(芯片中晶体管的最小线宽)芯片制备工艺制备的交换机芯片,其能够达到的最佳交换带宽为25Tbps,因此本申请实施例提供的交换机10能够获得更大的交换带宽,有利于提升交换机10的性能。
上述任意一个实施例中的交换机芯片202的结构如图8所示,该交换机芯片202可以包括传输链路41以及用于执行控制逻辑的处理器。该处理器包括如图8所示的交换缓存单元(switch buffer,SWB)40。
其中,传输链路41与D2D接口31以及SWB40电连接,传输链路41用于D2D接口31、SWB40以及不同D2D接口31之间收发数据的传输。这样一来,源交换机芯片的SWB40中的数据,可以通过传输链路41传输至该源交换机芯片202的D2D接 口31,以通过该D2D接口31发送至目的交换机芯片的D2D接口31。此外,当目的交换机芯片的D2D接口31接收到源交换机芯片202输出的数据后,该数据也可以通过传输链路41传输至目的交换机芯片的SWB40中。
此外,SWB40用于执行以下控制逻辑。示例的,源交换机芯片根据目的信息确定发送端口之后,源交换机芯片的SWB40所执行的控制逻辑还用于:确定源交换机芯片和目的交换机芯片之间的至少一条发送路径,对接收的数据进行排队缓存,并向目的交换机芯片发送调度请求。
此外,在目的交换机芯片将接收的数据通过发送端口发送之前,目的交换机芯片的SWB40所执行的控制逻辑还用于:根据调度请求以及目的交流换机芯片的带宽生成调度结果。并且,源交换机芯片的SWB40所执行的控制逻辑还用于:根据调度结果,使得接收的数据从队列中出队,将接收的数据通过至少一条发送路径,发送至目的交换机芯片。
在此基础上,上述SWB40如图9所示,可以包括电连接的输入缓存处理单元(ingress buffer,IB)401和输出缓存处理单元(egress buffer,EB)402。其中,IB401与网络接口30电连接。IB401用于确定源交换机芯片和目的交换机芯片之间的至少一条发送路径,对来自网络接口30的数据采用虚拟输出队列(virtual output queue,VOQ)的方式排队缓存,并向目的交换机芯片的EB402发送调度请求。
EB402与传输链路41和网络接口30电连接,EB402用于接收多个源交换机芯片发送的调度请求,并根据带宽生成多个调度结果,将多个调度结果分别发送至多个源交换机芯片的IB401。当源交换机芯片的IB401接收到上述调度结果后,可以根据调度结果,使得数据包从IB401的VOQ队列中出队,将接收的数据通过至少一条发送路径,发送至目的交换机芯片的EB402。在此基础上,目标交换机芯片的EB402还用于对来自源交换机芯片的即将发送至目的交换机芯片的网络接口30的数据进行缓存。
此外,如图9所示,上述传输链路41可以包括第一链路411和第二链路412。其中,第二链路412中数据的传输方向(如图9中箭头所示的方向)与第一链路411中数据的传输方向(如图9中箭头所示的方向)相反。此外,交换机10中,所有交换机芯片202的第一链路411依次首尾电连接,并且所有交换机芯片202的第二链路412依次首尾电连接。
例如,如图10a所示,在交换机10具有四个交换机芯片,分别为依次首尾电连接的交换机芯片202-A,交换机芯片202-B,交换机芯片202-C以及交换机芯片202-D的情况下,当交换机芯片202-A为用于发送数据的源交换机芯片,交换机芯片202-C为用于接收数据的目的交换机芯片时,该交换机芯片202-A发送数据的一部分流量可以沿每个交换机芯片的第一链路411(图10a中的实线箭头)中,沿箭头经过交换机芯片202-B传输至交换机芯片202-C。此外,交换机芯片202-A发送数据的另一部分流量可以在每个交换机芯片的第二链路412(图10a中的虚线箭头)中,沿箭头经过交换机芯片202-D传输至交换机芯片202-C,从而可以提高数据的传输效率。
在本申请的一些实施例中,如图10b所示,同一个多芯片封装结构20中的上述四个交换机芯片,例如交换机芯片202-A,交换机芯片202-B,交换机芯片202-C以及交换机芯片202-D可以以2×2矩阵形式进行排列。交换机芯片202-A,交换机芯片202-B, 交换机芯片202-C以及交换机芯片202-D的第一链路411(图10b中的实线箭头)依次收尾电连接呈环状。交换机芯片202-A,交换机芯片202-B,交换机芯片202-C以及交换机芯片202-D的第二链路412(图10b中的虚线箭头)依次收尾电连接呈环状。
这样一来,一个交换机芯片,例如交换机芯片202-A可以与其左边(或右边)的交换机芯片202-B,以及下边(或上边)的交换机芯片202-D通过第一链路411、第二链路412电连接在一起。由于彼此电连接的两个交换机芯片,例如交换机芯片202-A与交换机芯片202-B(或者,交换机芯片202-D)相邻,所以用于将相邻两个交换机芯片电连接在一起的金属引线(图中未示出)的长度可以不用太长,从而能够提高信号的传输效率。
示例的,如图9所示,上述第一链路411可以包括第一MAC接口(以下简称MAC-Rx1)和第一发送端MAC接口(以下简称MAC-Tx1)。其中,MAC-Rx1与MAC-Tx1以及EB402电连接。在此情况下,每个交换机芯片202的D2D接口31可以包括用于接收信号的D2D-Rx1和发送信号的D2D-Tx1,上述D2D-Rx1和D2D-Tx1如图9所示与第一链路411电连接。
基于此,当交换机10包括至少两个交换机芯片时,相邻的两个交换机芯片,例如如图10a所示,交换机芯片202-B的MAC-Rx1通过其自身的D2D接口(例如D2D-Rx1)以及另一个交换机芯片,例如交换机芯片202-A的D2D接口(例如D2D-Tx1),与该交换机芯片202-A的MAC-Tx1电连接。上述交换机芯片202-B的MAC-Rx1用于将来自D2D接口(例如D2D-Rx1)的数据写入至交换机芯片202-B的EB402,或者发送至交换机芯片202-B的MAC-Tx1。
此外,如图10a所示,交换机芯片202-B的MAC-Tx1与EB402电连接,并通过交换机芯片202-B的D2D接口(例如D2D-Tx1)以及另一个交换机芯片,例如交换机芯片202-C的D2D接口(例如D2D-Rx1),与交换机芯片202-C的MAC-Rx1电连接。由于交换机芯片202-B的MAC-Tx1还与交换机芯片202-B的MAC-Rx1电连接,因此,该交换机芯片202-B的MAC-Tx1用于将来自交换机芯片202-B的MAC-Rx1或者交换机芯片202-B的EB402的数据发送至该交换机芯片202-B的D2D接口(例如D2D-Tx1)。
此外,由上述可知,如图9所示,同一个交换机芯片202中,MAC-Tx1会接收来自MAC-Rx1以及EB402的数据。因此,为了避免来自MAC-Rx1以及EB402的数据发生冲突,该第一链路411还包括第一缓冲器(buffer,BF)51。该第一缓冲器51与交换机芯片202的MAC-Rx1、MAC-Tx1以及EB402电连接。第一缓冲器51用于将同一个交换机芯片202中MAC-Rx1以及EB402发送至MAC-Tx1的数据进行缓存。这样一来,缓存于第一缓冲器51中的数据可以采用先进先出(first In first out,FIFO)的方式在第一缓冲器51中进行排队,并发送至MAC-Tx1。
同理,如图9所示,第二链路412可以包括第二接收端MAC接口(以下简称MAC-Rx2)和第二发送端MAC接口(以下简称MAC-Tx2)。同一个交换机芯片202中,MAC-Rx2与MAC-Tx2以及EB402电连接。
需要说明的是,第一链路411中的MAC-Rx1与MAC-Tx1,以及与第二链路412中的MAC-Rx2与MAC-Tx2可以采用标准以太网协议,也可以采用自定义的简化标准。
在此情况下,每个交换机芯片202的D2D接口31还可以包括用于接收信号的D2D-Rx2和发送信号的D2D-Tx2,上述D2D-Rx2和D2D-Tx2如图9所示与第二链路412电连接。基于此,当交换机10包括至少两个交换机芯片时,相邻的两个交换机芯片,例如如图10a所示的交换机芯片202-B的MAC-Rx2通过其自身的D2D接口(例如D2D-Rx2)以及另一个交换机芯片,例如交换机芯片202-C的D2D接口(例如D2D-Tx2),与该交换机芯片202-C的MAC-Tx2电连接。上述交换机芯片202-B的MAC-Rx2用于将来自D2D接口(例如D2D-Rx2)的数据写入至EB402,或者发送至交换机芯片202-B的MAC-Tx2。
此外,如图10a所示,交换机芯片202-B的MAC-Tx2与EB402电连接,并通过交换机芯片202-B的D2D接口(例如D2D-Tx2)以及另一个交换机芯片,例如交换机芯片202-A的D2D接口(例如D2D-Rx2),与交换机芯片202-A的MAC-Rx2电连接。由于交换机芯片202-B的MAC-Tx2还与交换机芯片202-B的MAC-Rx2电连接,因此,该交换机芯片202-B的MAC-Tx2用于将来自交换机芯片202-B的MAC-Rx2或者交换机芯片202-B的EB402的数据发送至该交换机芯片202-B的D2D接口(例如D2D-Tx2)。
此外,由上述可知,如图9所示,同一个交换机芯片202中,MAC-Tx2会接收来自MAC-Rx2以及EB402的数据。因此,为了避免来自MAC-Rx2以及EB402的数据发生冲突,该第二链路412还包括第二缓冲器52。该第二缓冲器52与交换机芯片202的MAC-Rx2、MAC-Tx2以及EB402电连接。第二缓冲器52用于将同一个交换机芯片202中MAC-Rx2以及EB402发送至MAC-Tx2的数据进行缓存。这样一来,缓存于第二缓冲器52中的数据可以采用FIFO的方式在第二缓冲器52中进行排队,并发送至MAC-Tx2。
在此基础上,本申请实施例提供的交换机芯片202的网络接口30可以包括如图9所示的用于接收信号的VSR-Rx和发送信号的VSR-Tx。此外,上述交换机芯片202还包括第三接收端MAC接口(以下简称MAC-Rx3)以及第三发送端MAC接口(以下简称MAC-Tx3)。MAC-Rx3和MAC-Tx3可以采用标准以太网协议。此外,交换机芯片202的处理器中的转发处理单元可以包括如图9所示的上行转发处理单元(ingress pipeline,IPP)、下行转发处理单元(egress pipeline,EPP)。
其中,MAC-Rx3与网络接口(例如,VSR-Rx)和IPP电连接。该MAC-Rx3作为数据链路层的接口用于将来自VSR-Rx的数据传输至IPP。该IPP还与SWB40电连接。IPP用于根据来自VSR-Rx的数据的源地址,获取其目的地址,并将数据写入至本地的SWB40。具体的,当VSR-Rx接收到数据包,并通过MAC-Rx3传输至IPP。当交换机芯片202执行二层转发时,该IPP可以读取数据包包头中的源MAC地址,再读取该数据包包头中的目的MAC地址,并在MAC地址表中查找与该目的MAC地址相应的接口。或者,当交换机芯片202执行三层转发时,该IPP可以读取数据包包头中的源IP地址,再读取该数据包包头中的目的IP地址,并在IP地址表中查找与该目的MAC地址相应的接口。
此外,如图9所示,EPP与MAC-Tx3以及SWB40电连接。该EPP用于对从SWB40中读取数据并发送至MAC-Tx3。当交换机芯片202进行三层转发时,EPP需要改变数 据包包头中的源MAC地址以及目的MAC地址,以完成二层封装。此外,MAC-Tx3还与网络接口(例如,MR-Tx)电连接。该MAC-Tx3作为数据链路层的接口用于将来EPP的数据传输至MR-Tx。
示例的,该交换机10中任意一个交换机芯片202的SWB40中的IB401以及EB402的数据交换容量可以均为12.8Tbps(图中简写为12.8T)。在此情况下,可以设置四个IPP分别该IB401电连接,并设置四个MAC-Rx3,一个MAC-Rx3与一个IPP电连接,使得每一路接口可以处理数据的容量为3.2Tbps(图中简写为3.2T)。同理,设置四个EPP分别该EB402电连接,并设置四个MAC-Tx3,一个MAC-Tx3与一个EPP电连接,使得每一路接口可以处理数据的容量为3.2Tbps(图中简写为3.2T)。
以下以图10a所示的交换机10的结构为例,对交换机10中四个依次首尾相接的交换机芯片202-A,交换机芯片202-B,交换机芯片202-C以及交换机芯片202-D的数据转发过程进行举例说明。该数据转发过程可以包括如图11所示的S101~S103。
在本申请的一些实施例中,当数据在交换机10中的同一个交换机芯片,例如交换机芯片202-A中进行数据转发时,目的交换机芯片与其中一个源交换机芯片均为交换机芯片202-A。
S101、源交换机芯片进行数据缓存。
具体的,图9所示的交换机芯片202-A作为其中一个源交换机芯片,其各个IPP输出的数据可以传输至交换机芯片202-A的IB401中。IB401可以对来自多个IPP的数据缓存于VOQ队列中。
需要说明的是,IB401中一个VOQ队列与一个交换机芯片的一个MAC-Tx3的一个优先级对应。例如,当交换机10包括如图4所示的四个交换机芯片,且每个交换机芯片具有32个MAC-Tx3,每个MAC-Tx3具有8个优先级时,每个交换机芯片的IB401中可以设置1024个(4×32×8=1024个)VOQ队列。
S102、目的交换机芯片执行调度,调度结果发给源交换机芯片。
具体的,该交换机芯片202-A作为源交换机芯片时,该交换机芯片202-A的IB401会向该交换机芯片202-A的EB402发送调度请求。该交换机芯片202-A作为目的交换机芯片时,交换机芯片202-A的EB402接收交换机芯片202-A的IB401发送的调度请求。此外,交换机芯片202-A的EB402还可以接收其余的源交换机芯片,例如交换机芯片202-B、交换机芯片202-C以及交换机芯片202-D的IB401通过上述传输链路41(如图9所示)发送至交换机芯片202-A的EB402的调度请求。交换机芯片202-A的EB402根据带宽(例如,12.8T)生成多个调度结果,以执行调度,并将调度结果发送至上述各个源交换机芯片的IB401。
需要说明的是,目的交换机芯片的EB402根据带宽(例如,12.8T)生成多个调度结果,并将调度结果发送至上述各个源交换机芯片的IB401是指,目的交换机芯片的EB402接收到的调度请求可能会大于带宽(例如,12.8T),该EB402的发送能力只有12.8T,所以EB402每次发送的调度结果不会大于12.8T,超出带宽部分会在EB402中分批次发送。
S103、源交换机芯片转发数据给目的交换机芯片。
具体的,当作为源交换机芯片的交换机芯片202-A的IB401接收到作为目的交换 机芯片的交换机芯片202-A的EB402发送的调度结果后,交换机芯片202-A的IB401可以根据调度结果,使得数据包从该IB401的VOQ队列中出队,并发送至交换机芯片202-A的EB402。该EB402可以通过EPP将数据包发送至对应的MAC-Tx3,并最终通过MR-TX发送至与该MR-TX电连接的电子设备11中,以完成数据的转发。
基于此,为了避免EB402向同一个MAC-Tx3发送的数据发生冲突,该交换机芯片202的EB402还可以根据调度结果,对即将发送至通能过一个MAC-Tx3的数据,采用FIFO的方式进行缓存。
上述是以数据在交换机10中的同一个交换机芯片,例如交换机芯片202-A中进行数据转发为例进行的说明。在本申请的另一个实施例中,交换机10在转发数据的过程中,当交换机芯片202-A将数据转发至与该交换机芯片202-A相邻的交换机芯片202-B时,交换机芯片202-A可以作为其中一个源交换机芯片,交换机芯片202-B作为目的交换机芯片。
在此情况下,交换机10的数据转发过程仍然如图11所示,具体的,首先执行S101,使得交换机芯片202-A中,各个IPP输出的数据可以缓存于作为源交换机芯片的交换机芯片202-A中IB401的多个VOQ队列中。此时,作为源交换机芯片的交换机芯片202-A中IB401可以确定的一条发送路径,该发送路径可以包括:从作为源交换机芯片的交换机芯片202-A到作为目的交换机芯片的交换机芯片202-B。
接下来,在执行S102的过程中,图10a所示的作为源交换机芯片的交换机芯片202-A的IB401会通过第一链路411(图10a中的实线箭头)向作为目的交换机芯片的交换机芯片202-B的EB402发送调度请求。交换机芯片202-B的EB402接收交换机芯片202-A的IB401发送的调度请求。此外,交换机芯片202-B的EB402还可以接收其余的源交换机芯片,例如交换机芯片202-B、交换机芯片202-C以及交换机芯片202-D的IB401通过上述第一链路411或第二链路412发送至交换机芯片202-B的EB402的调度请求。作为目的交换机芯片的交换机芯片202-B的EB402根据带宽(例如,12.8T)生成多个调度结果,并将调度结果发送至上述各个源交换机芯片的IB401。
接下来,执行上述S103,作为源交换机芯片的交换机芯片202-A的IB401接收到交换机芯片202-B的EB402发送的调度结果后,交换机芯片202-A的IB401可以根据调度结果,使得数据包从该IB401的VOQ队列中出队,将该数据可以通过上述发送路径,由第一链路411发送至交换机芯片202-B的EB402。其中,由交换机芯片202-A的IB401出队的数据可以经过交换机芯片202-A的EB402发送至交换机芯片202-A的第一缓冲器51。此时,当交换机芯片202-A的MAC-Rx1接收到的数据也发送至第一缓冲器51时,该第一缓冲器51可以采用FIFO的方式对数据进行缓存,并输出至交换机芯片202-A的MAC-Tx1。
然后,与交换机芯片202-A的MAC-Tx1电连接的交换机芯片202-B,通过该交换机芯片202-B的MAC-Rx1将数据接收至交换机芯片202-B的EB402,EB402可以通过EPP将数据包发送至交换机芯片202-B对应的MAC-Tx3,或者在交换机芯片202-B的EB402中进行一次缓存。
或者,在本申请的另一个实施例中,交换机10在转发数据的过程中,当交换机芯片202-A将数据转发至交换机芯片202-C时,交换机芯片202-A可以作为其中一个源 交换机芯片,交换机芯片202-C作为目的交换机芯片。此时,如图10b所示,沿第一反向(例如顺时针)传输数据时,交换机芯片202-A和交换机芯片202-C之间间隔有作为第一中间交换机芯片的交换机芯片202-B。或者,沿第二方向(例如逆时针)传输数据时,交换机芯片202-A和交换机芯片202-C之间间隔有作为第二中间交换机芯片的交换机芯片202-D。
在此情况下,交换机10的数据转发过程仍然如图11所示,具体的,首先执行S101,使得交换机芯片202-A中,各个IPP输出的数据可以缓存于作为源交换机芯片的交换机芯片202-A中IB401的多个VOQ队列中。此时,作为源交换机芯片的交换机芯片202-A中IB401可以确定的第一发送路径,该第一发送路径可以包括:从作为源交换机芯片的交换机芯片202-A,经过作为第一中间交换机芯片的交换机芯片202-B到作为目的交换机芯片的交换机芯片202-B。
接下来,在执行S102的过程中,图10a所示的作为源交换机芯片的交换机芯片202-A的IB401会通过第一链路411(图10a中的实线箭头),经过交换机芯片202-B向该交换机芯片202-C的EB402发送调度请求。
然后,作为目的交换机芯片的交换机芯片202-C的EB402接收交换机芯片202-A的IB401发送的调度请求。此外,交换机芯片202-C的EB402还可以接收其余的源交换机芯片,例如交换机芯片202-B、交换机芯片202-C以及交换机芯片202-D的IB401通过上述第一链路411或第二链路412发送至交换机芯片202-C的EB402的调度请求。交换机芯片202-C的EB402根据带宽生成多个调度结果,并将调度结果发送至上述各个源交换机芯片的IB401。
接下来,执行上述S103,作为源交换机芯片的交换机芯片202-A的IB401接收到交换机芯片202-C的EB402发送的调度结果后,交换机芯片202-A的IB401可以根据调度结果,使得数据包从该IB401的VOQ队列中出队。将该数据可以通过上述第一发送路径,由第一链路411(图10a中的实线箭头),经过交换机芯片202-B发送至交换机芯片202-C的EB402。
或者,在本申请的另一些实施例中,执行S101,交换机芯片202-A中IB401可以确定第二发送路径,该第二发送路径可以为:从交换机芯片202-A,经过作为第二中间交换机芯片的交换机芯片202-D到作为目的交换机芯片的交换机芯片202-B时,数据的发送过程同上所述,此处不再赘述。
又或者,在本申请的另一些实施例中,执行S101,作为源交换机芯片的交换机芯片202-A中IB401可以同时确定出第一发送路径和第二发送路径。接下来,在执行S102的过程中,图10a所示的作为源交换机芯片的交换机芯片202-A的IB401会通过第一链路411(图10a中的实线箭头),经过交换机芯片202-B向该交换机芯片202-C的EB402发送调度请求。或者,交换机芯片202-A的IB401可以通过第二链路412(图10a中的虚线箭头),经过交换机芯片202-D向该交换机芯片202-C的EB402发送调度请求。
然后,作为目的交换机芯片的交换机芯片202-C的EB402接收交换机芯片202-A的IB401发送的调度请求。此外,交换机芯片202-C的EB402还可以接收其余的源交换机芯片,例如交换机芯片202-B、交换机芯片202-C以及交换机芯片202-D的IB401 通过上述第一链路411或第二链路412发送至交换机芯片202-C的EB402的调度请求。交换机芯片202-C的EB402根据带宽生成多个调度结果,并将调度结果发送至上述各个源交换机芯片的IB401。
接下来,执行上述S103,作为源交换机芯片的交换机芯片202-A的IB401接收到交换机芯片202-C的EB402发送的调度结果后,交换机芯片202-A的IB401可以根据调度结果,使得数据包从该IB401的VOQ队列中出队。将该数据的一部分通过上述第一发送路径,由第一链路411(图10a中的实线箭头),经过交换机芯片202-B发送至交换机芯片202-C的EB402。此外,将该数据的另一部分通过上述第二发送路径,由第二链路412(图10a中的实线箭头),经过交换机芯片202-D发送至作为目的交换机芯片的交换机芯片202-C的EB402。其中,第二链路412中的第二缓冲器52的作用与第一缓冲器51的作用同理可得,此处不再赘述。
接下来,交换机芯片202-C的EB402可以通过EPP将数据包发送至交换机芯片202-C对应的MAC-Tx3,或者在交换机芯片202-C的EB402中进行一次缓存。
