Abstract

Technologies for tracking out-of-order network packets include a target computing node coupled to a source computing node via a communication channel. The target computing node is configured to allocate a small window in memory in which to store a bit mask corresponding to a number of out-of-order network packets received from the source computing node via the communication channel. The target computing node is further configured to update the bit mask in the small window upon receiving an out-of-order network packet from the source computing node. The target computing node is additionally configured to allocate a large window in memory in response to a determination the size of the bit mask is larger than the size of the small window, store the bit mask in the large window, and store a pointer to the large window in the small window. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
