Abstract
Embodiments of the present invention provide a system, method, and computer program product that enables applications transferring data packets over a network to a multi-processing system to choose how the data packets are going to be processed by, e.g., allowing the applications to pre-assign connections to a particular network thread and migrate a connection from one network thread to another network thread without putting the connection into an inconsistent state.
