Abstract
Various examples are directed to systems and methods for requesting an atomic operation. A first hardware compute element may send a first request via a network structure, where the first request comprises an atomic opcode indicating an atomic operation to be performed by a second hardware compute element. The network structure may provide an address bus from the first hardware compute element for providing the atomic opcode to the second hardware compute element. The second hardware compute element may execute the atomic operation and send confirmation data indicating completion of the atomic operation. The network structure may provide a second bus from the second hardware compute element and the first hardware compute element. The second bus may be for providing the confirmation data from the second hardware compute element to the first hardware compute element.
