Reliable, out-of-order transmission of packets

Abstract:

Provided are systems and methods for reliable, out-of-order transmission of packets. In some implementations, provided is an apparatus configured to communicate with a network and a host device. The apparatus may receive messages from the host device at a send queue, where each message includes destination information. The apparatus may further determine, using the destination information and an identify of the send queue, a transport context associated with a destination on the network. The apparatus may further, for each message and using the transport context, generate a packet including the message and transmit the packet over the network. The apparatus may further monitor status for each transmitted packet.
