GPU REMOTE COMMUNICATION WITH TRIGGERED OPERATIONS
Abstract:
Methods, devices, and systems for transmitting data over a computer communications network are disclosed. A queue of communications commands can be pre-generated using a central processing unit (CPU) and stored in a device memory of a network interface controller (NIC). Thereafter, if a graphics processing unit (GPU) has data to communicate to a remote GPU, it can store the data in a send buffer, where the location in the buffer is pointed to by a pre-generated command. The GPU can then signal to the interface device that the data is ready, triggering execution of the pre-generated command to send the data.
