Web server in-kernel interface to data transport system and cache manager
First Claim
1. In a web server, a method of sending a HTTP request to a HTTP daemon, comprising:
- receiving a HTTP request including HTTP request data from a HTTP client;
associating a connection identifier with the HTTP request;
repeating the receiving and associating steps for HTTP requests from a plurality of other HTTP clients;
sending the connection identifier and the associated HTTP request data for the HTTP requests from the HTTP clients in a first stream from a network cache accelerator of the web server to a file system of the web server, the network cache accelerator being adapted for communicating with the HTTP clients; and
storing the HTTP requests with the associated connection identifiers by the file system, the file system being adapted for sending each of the HTTP requests to the HTTP daemon and receiving HTTP responses from the HTTP daemon for each of the HTTP requests.

Abstract
A HTTP request is sent to a web server. A HTTP request including HTTP request data is received. A connection identifier is associated with the HTTP request. The receiving and associating steps are repeated for one or more HTTP requests. The connection identifier and the associated HTTP request data for the one or more HTTP requests are then sent in a single stream to the web server (e.g., HTTP process). When a HTTP request including HTTP request data are processed by a web server, the HTTP request data and an associated connection identifier are received. HTTP response data associated with the HTTP request data is obtained. The HTTP response data and the connection identifier are then sent.
