Abstract

See full text

A computer-implemented method for message handling between a receiver and a sender of a throttling system is provided. The computer-implemented method includes receiving a first message that includes a completion queue element by the receiver from the sender. The computer-implemented method includes detecting that a number of outstanding completion queue elements in a completion queue meets or exceeds a high mark and instructing the sender to enter a throttle mode. The computer-implemented method includes receiving a second message without a completion queue element by the receiver from the sender. The computer-implemented method includes detecting that the number of the outstanding completion queue elements in the completion queue meets or is below a low mark and instructing the sender to exit the throttle mode.
