Abstract:
A system including a DCU with a DMS located on the first node, where the DMS is associated with an interrupt receive register. The system further includes a second DCU located on second node that includes a GMS located on the second node, where the GMS is associated with an interrupt dispatch register. The GMS is configured to identify the DMS, determine a payload to transmit to DMS, issue cross-calls using the interrupt dispatch register, where a cross-call is issued for each non-zero bit in the payload, and issue a cross-call including a completion vector. The DCU is configured to receive the cross-calls from the GMS, in response to each of the cross-calls, set a corresponding bit-location in the second interrupt receive register to one, and after receiving the completion vector, use a current state of the interrupt receive register to determine a physical address.
