Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A computer implemented method, apparatus, and computer usable program code for processing data packets. A set of data fragments are received at the data processing system to form a set of received data fragments. Assembly of the set of data fragments is initiated into a data packet, and a determination as to whether the data packet is an incomplete data packet. Responsive to a determination that the data packet is an incomplete data packet, the incomplete data packet is filled with at least one character to form a final data packet. The final data packet is forwarded to the target.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A computer-performed method of processing data received by a networking protocol stack of a computer system, the method comprising: first receiving multiple fragments of a packet at the networking protocol stack of the computer system, wherein the packet is en-route to a target application for further processing, and wherein the target application selectively sends an indication that the target application can accept incomplete packets if the target applicat…
