ABSTRACT:
An interconnect interface for connecting a host computer to an interconnect fabric in a multi-computer data processing system including a plurality of host computers. A sending process having permission to send messages to a receiving process on another computer in the system controls a portion of the computer memory on the computer running the receiving process. The location of the memory in question together with a protection key value are stored in a table in the receiving terminus of the interconnect interface on the recipient. The sending terminus of the interconnect interface on the computer running the sending process incorporates information in each message packet which specifies an entry in this table. Each message also includes a protection key that must match the corresponding entry in the table on the receiving terminus.
