Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A dual host system and method with back to back non-transparent bridges and a proxy packet generating mechanism. The proxy packet generating mechanism enables the hosts to send interrupt generating packets to each other.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A data processing system comprising: a first host comprising a first non-transparent bridge; and a second host comprising a second non-transparent bridge, wherein the first and second non-transparent bridges are arranged in a back to back configuration and wherein at least a portion of the second non-transparent bridge is inaccessible to the first host and at least a portion of the first non-transparent bridge is inaccessible to the second host, wherein…
