Abstract
Notifications for data written to a shared memory are prioritized so that certain data can be processed ahead of other data. A writer stores all notifications to a main notification queue store, including normal priority notifications and different levels of high priority notifications. A set of priority notification queues store pointers to entries in the main notification queue that contain high priority notifications. The writer stores notifications to the main notification queue of a given high priority level to a corresponding priority notification queue. Readers read notifications and process the data pointed to in the notifications. A reader first reads the priority notification queues to consume high priority notifications followed by consuming normal priority notifications.
