Abstract
A synchronous input/output (I/O) computing system includes a processor and a memory unit that stores program instructions. The system purges one or more address translation entries in response to the processor executing the program instructions to issue, via an operating system running on the synchronous I/O computing system, a synchronous I/O command indicating a request to perform a transaction. The program instructions further command the operating system to select a device table entry from a device table, load the entry into the DTC, request required address translation entries, install the required address translation entries in the address translation cache, and transfer data packets corresponding to the transaction. The program instructions further command the operating system to automatically purge the address translation cache entries associated with a transaction in response to detect that the transaction is completed.
