US 11,451,609 B2 · Technologies for accelerated HTTP processing with hardware acceleration

Abstract

Technologies for accelerated HTTP message processing include a computing device having a network controller. The computing device may generate an HTTP message, frame the HTTP message to generate a transport protocol packet such as a TCP/IP packet or QUIC packet, and pass the transport protocol packet to the network controller. The network controller compresses the HTTP header of the HTTP message, encrypts the compressed HTTP message, and transmits the encrypted message to a remote device. The network controller may segment the transport protocol packet into multiple segmented packets. The network controller may receive transport protocol packets that include encrypted HTTP message. The network controller decrypts the encrypted HTTP message to generate a compressed HTTP message, decompresses the HTTP message, and steers the HTTP message to a receive queue based on contents of an HTTP header. The network controller may coalesce multiple transport protocol packets. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

Dependent claims

A computing device comprising:

a network interface controller to receive a transport protocol packet from a remote computing device, wherein the transport protocol packet comprises an encrypted Hypertext Transport Protocol (HTTP) message, wherein the network interface controller comprises:
cryptographic circuitry to decrypt the encrypted HTTP message of the transport protocol packet to generate a compressed HTTP message of the transport protocol packet;
compression circuitry to decompress the compressed HTTP message of the transport protocol packet to generate an HTTP message of the transport protocol packet in response to decryption of the encrypted HTTP message, wherein the HTTP message comprises an application layer protocol message that includes an HTTP header;
and
circuitry to process the HTTP message in response to decompression of the compressed HTTP message to determine whether the HTTP header of the HTTP message matches a filter criteria.

2 more elements

One or more non-transitory computer-readable storage media comprising a plurality of instructions stored thereon that, in response to being executed, cause a computing device to:

receive, by a network interface controller of the computing device, a transport protocol packet from a remote computing device, wherein the transport protocol packet comprises an encrypted Hypertext Transport Protocol (HTTP) message;
decrypt, by the network interface controller, the encrypted HTTP message of the transport protocol packet to generate a compressed HTTP message of the transport protocol packet;
decompress, by the network interface controller, the compressed HTTP message of the transport protocol packet to generate an HTTP message of the transport protocol packet in response to decrypting the encrypted HTTP message, wherein the HTTP message comprises an application layer protocol message that includes an HTTP header;
and
process, by the network interface controller, the HTTP message in response to decompressing the compressed HTTP message to determine whether the HTTP header of the HTTP message matches a filter criteria.
