Abstract
Methods, apparatuses, and computer program products for utilizing a kernel administration hardware thread of a multi-threaded, multi-core compute node of a parallel computer are provided. Embodiments include a kernel assigning a memory space of a hardware thread of an application processing core to a kernel administration hardware thread of a kernel processing core. A kernel administration hardware thread is configured to advance the hardware thread to a next memory space associated with the hardware thread in response to the assignment of the kernel administration hardware thread to the memory space of the hardware thread. Embodiments also include the kernel administration hardware thread executing an instruction within the assigned memory space.
