Abstract
A Network Interface (NI) includes a host interface, which is configured to receive from a host processor of a node one or more work requests that are derived from an operation to be executed by the node. The NI maintains a plurality of work queues for carrying out transport channels to one or more peer nodes over a network. The NI further includes control circuitry, which is configured to accept the work requests via the host interface, and to execute the work requests using the work queues by controlling an advance of at least a given work queue according to an advancing condition, which depends on a completion status of one or more other work queues, so as to carry out the operation.
