    Abstract: A port processor to receive a read command in a target port. In response, use the target to process a data transfer that includes use of memory for the read transfer allocated by a storage array controller prior to receipt of the read command by the target port or while processing the data transfer and selectively mark such memory as repurposable. The port processor to receive a write command in the target port. In response to receipt of the write command, use the target to process a data transfer for the initiator associated with the write operation, wherein the process includes use of memory that the storage array controller pre-allocated or allocated based on receipt of the read command by the target port for the transfer to the storage array controller and marked as repurposable.

    Abstract translation: 端口处理器,用于在目标端口中接收读取命令。 作为响应,使用目标处理数据传输,包括在由目标端口接收到读取命令之前或在处理数据传输时选择性地标记存储器阵列控制器分配的读取传输的内存,并选择性地标记可重用的内存 。 端口处理器在目标端口中接收写命令。 响应于接收到写入命令,使用目标来处理与写入操作相关联的发起者的数据传输,其中该处理包括使用存储器,其中存储阵列控制器基于读取命令的接收而被预分配或分配 由目标端口转移到存储阵列控制器并标记为可重复使用。
