Abstract
A method and apparatus are provided for assigning transport priorities to messages in a data processing system. An incoming message at an input/output (I/O) interface of the data processing system includes a message identifier and payload data. Match information, including an indicator or whether the message identifier of the incoming message matches an identifier of a request in a receive queue (RQ), is used to assign a transport priority value to the incoming message. The incoming message is transported to the destination node through an interconnect structure dependent upon the assigned transport priority value.
