Peripheral Device Disaggregation using Tunneling

Abstract

A system includes one or more processing devices, one or more peripheral devices, and an interconnection fabric to connect the one or more processing devices and the one or more peripheral devices. A plurality of pairs is set-up in the system, each pair including (i) a respective processing device among the one or more processing devices and (ii) a respective peripheral device among the one or more peripheral devices. Each pair is to communicate over a respective tunnel established via the interconnection fabric, so as to provide resources of the peripheral device to the processing device.

Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
