Abstract

Innovative techniques to efficient stripe ordered writes across multiple socket-to-socket links. The ordered writes may be PCIe ordered writes. Each socket-to-socket write (or remote write) for an address may be converted into two transactions. The first transaction may ensure that coherency for the address is ensured. The second transaction may be the actual request transaction to write the data of the address. In so doing, when multiple remote writes are involved, the remote writes may be distributed over multiple socket-to-socket links to maximize bandwidth.
