    Abstract: An input/output store instruction is handled. A data processing system includes a system nest coupled to at least one input/output bus by an input/output bus controller. The data processing system further includes at least a data processing unit including a core, system firmware and an asynchronous core-nest interface. The data processing unit is coupled to the system nest via an aggregation buffer. The system nest is configured to asynchronously load from and/or store data to at least one external device which is coupled to the at least one input/output bus. The data processing unit is configured to complete the input/output store instruction before an execution of the input/output store instruction in the system nest is completed. The asynchronous core-nest interface includes an input/output status array with multiple input/output status buffers. The system firmware includes a retry buffer and the core includes an analysis and retry logic.
