Abstract
Methods and apparatus for transporting data in a web server are disclosed. A HTTP request including HTTP request data is received by a data transport module from a client. The HTTP request data may be sent with a preempt indicator from the data transport module to a HTTP daemon. The preempt indicator indicates whether processing is preempted from the data transport module to the HTTP daemon. Similarly, when a HTTP response is returned from the HTTP daemon to the data transport module, HTTP response data may be sent with a preempt indicator from the HTTP daemon to the data transport module indicating whether processing is preempted from the HTTP daemon to the data transport module. In addition, an identifier identifying the HTTP response data may be returned to the data transport module which identifies the response and enables the data transport module to independently access the response for transmission to a client.
