ABSTRACT:
A scheme for interlocking two devices in a computer system for the performance of request/response transfers between the two devices. The scheme provides a request/response memory including a plurality of entries, each of the entries having a request storage memory space for storing a request and a response storage memory space for storing a corresponding response. Each request storage memory space and response storage memory space includes a preselected area for the storage of ownership information relating to the request/response pair stored in the respective entry so that ownership information can be read and written in the same read/write operations utilized in respect of the corresponding request/response pair.
