Abstract

Methods and systems for transmitting information are provided. A threshold message size is configured to determine when an application executed by a computing system can send a latency message identifying a memory location from where a device can procure a payload for transmission to a destination. The computing system sends a latency message to the device, where the latency message includes the memory location, a transfer size and an indicator indicating if the application wants a completion status after the latency message is processed. The computing system stores connection information at a location dedicated to the application that sends the latency message. The device transmits the payload to the destination; and posts a completion status, where the device posts the completion status at a completion queue associated with the application with information that enables the application to determine whether other latency messages can be posted.
