Interprocessor memory status communication
Abstract:
In a transactional memory environment including a first processor and one or more additional processors, a computer-implemented method includes, by the first processor, initializing a time record, listening for zero or more probes from the one more additional processors, responding to each probe of the zero or more probes, and logging each probe of the zero or more probes to yield a probe log. The computer-implemented method further includes, by the first processor, receiving a probe report directive and, responsive to the probe report directive, generating a probe report indication based on the probe log. The probe report indication denotes whether, since the time record, the first processor has received any of the zero or more probes. The computer-implemented method further includes ending the time record. A corresponding computer program product and computer system are also disclosed.
