Abstract

A method for managing orders of operations between one or more clients and one or more servers is disclosed. The method includes partitioning addressable regions of logical servers on or within an interconnect link into multiple regions including a first orderable region, and providing logical client an ability to push ordering responsibility within the first orderable region to a server. Over the first orderable region, two request messages for access to memory-mapped sources including two respective operations are transmitted, and the two request messages originate from a same logical client. The ordering responsibility can include a first rule for order of operations between the two request messages.
