METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR SAFE ENQUEUING OF EVENTS

摘要

A method and system to facilitate a user level application executing in a first processing unit to enqueue work or task(s) safely for a second processing unit without performing any ring transition. For example, in one embodiment of the invention, the first processing unit executes one or more user level applications, where each user level application has a task to be offloaded to a second processing unit. The first processing unit signals the second processing unit to handle the task from each user level application without performing any ring transition in one embodiment of the invention.
