Abstract
In one example, a method comprises: receiving, by a hardware data processor and from a network adapter, a transfer complete message indicating that the network adapter has initiated a transfer of data received from a network to the hardware data processor, the transfer being performed over an interconnect coupled between the hardware data processor and the network adapter; based on receiving the transfer complete message, performing, by the hardware data processor, a flush operation to fetch any remaining portion of the data buffered in the interconnect to a local memory of the hardware data processor; based on determining that flush operation is complete, storing, by the data hardware processor, the transfer complete message at the local memory; and based on determining that the transfer complete message is stored at the local memory, starting the computation operation of the data at the hardware data processor or preforming an error handling operation.
