Abstract
A mechanism is provided efficient packing of network flits in a data processing network. Transaction messages for transmission across a communication link of a data processing network are analyzed to determine a group of transaction messages to be passed to a packing logic block for increased packing efficiency. The transaction messages are packed into slots of one or more network flits and transmitted across a communication link. The mechanism reduces the number of unused slots in a transmitted network.
