Abstract
A method for network communication includes providing a pool of descriptors to be shared among a plurality of transport service instances used in communicating over a network, each of the descriptors in the pool including a scatter list indicating a buffer that is available in a local memory. When a message containing data to be pushed to the local memory is received over the network on one of transport service instances, one of the descriptors is read from the pool. The data contained in the message are written to the buffer indicated by the scatter list included in the one of the descriptors.
