ABSTRACT:
A software architecture and method for controlling multi-thread peripheral operations in an initiator device such as a computer equipped with a SCSI interface. A data structure is provided for storage of thread context parameters. High level code places a low level driver in either a single-thread or multi-thread mode, and then issues peripheral commands by calling the low level driver. The low level driver manages the interface protocol, returning to the high level code when a command is complete, or if in multi-thread mode, when a command disconnects. Management of the data structure is accomplished by the low level driver, minimizing the impact of multi-thread operations on the high level code.
