A scalable hardware mechanism to implement time outs for pending pop requests to blocking work queues |
摘要 |
Methods and apparatus for minimizing resources for handling time-outs of read requests to a work queue in a work queue memory are described. According to one embodiment of the invention, a work queue execution engine receives a first read request when the work queue is configured in a blocking mode and is empty. A time-out timer is started in response to receiving the first read request. The work queue execution engine receives a second read request while the first read request is still pending, and the work queue is still empty. When the time-out timer expires for the first read request, the work queue execution engine sends an error response for the first read request and restarts the time-out timer for the second read request taking into account an amount of time the second read request has already been pending. |
