Abstract
A computing node in a distributed system is provided. During operation, the node can send, from a source process using direct memory transfer, a first set of data elements from a source buffer to a NIC of a target node executing a target process. These processes may be among a plurality of processes performing a distributed operation across a set of nodes. Subsequent to sending the first set of data elements, the node can receive respective acknowledgments for the first set of data elements from the NIC. The node can then send, to the NIC of the target node, a flush instruction to trigger the delivery of pending data elements to a destination buffer of the target process. The node can send, from the source process, a control message to the target process indicating that the first set of data elements is available to the target process.
