One embodiment provides a network interface controller (NIC). The NIC can include a storage device, a network interface, a hardware list-processing engine (LPE), and a message state table (MST) logic block. The storage device can store an MST. The network interface can couple the NIC to a network. The LPE can perform message matching on a first packet of a message received via the network interface. The MST logic block can store results of the message matching in the MST and receive a request to read the results of the message matching from the MST if the NIC receives a second packet associated with the message.
