Abstract

A method, according to one approach, includes: allocating a group of central processing units in a system to an input/output (I/O) resource. A group of mail slots are also allocated from memory in the system, where the allocated mail slots are configured to receive read and/or write commands from the I/O resource. The method further includes allocating a group of direct memory access engine channels in the system to the I/O resource. The direct memory access engine channels are allocated such that a first subset of the direct memory access engine channels are configured to perform read commands for the mail slots, and a second subset of the direct memory access engine channels are configured to perform write commands for the mail slots.
