Abstract
A computing system includes a main memory and an input/output adapter. The input/output adapter accesses a translation map. The translation map maps input/output page numbers to memory address page numbers. Entries to the translation map are generated so that each entry includes an address of a data page in the main memory and transaction configuration information. The transaction configuration information is utilized by the input/output adapter during data transactions to and from the data page.
