Abstract:
In one embodiment, updating and searching of entries in a hardware content-addressable memory is coordinated to provide more searching bandwidth (e.g., for determining packet processing information), including, but not limited to, when vectors are moved among entries to free up desired entry positions for insertion of other vectors. A lookup operation in performed in content-addressable memory entries in a hardware content-addressable memory based on a lookup word to generate a content-addressable memory lookup result. Typically overlapping in time, a matching operation is performed in one or more transitory entries to generate a transitory matching result based on the lookup word. These transitory entries are populated with transitory vectors and have an associated index within the content-addressable memory, with these transitory vectors are subsequently inserted in the content-addressable memory at their associated index positions. A matching result is determined from the content-addressable memory lookup result and the transitory matching result.

Claim (Index 6):
The method of  claim 1 , comprising for each particular source entry of one or more source content-addressable memory entries, moving a programmed vector populated in the particular source entry to a different position within the hardware content-addressable memory; and\n wherein said source content-addressable memory entries include the associated position of each of said one or more transitory entries.
