Data received over a shared network interface is directly placed by the shared network interface in a designated memory area of a host. In providing this direct memory access, the incoming data packets are split, such that the headers are separated from the data. The headers are placed in a designated area of a memory buffer of the host. Additionally, the data is stored in contiguous locations within the buffer. This receive and store is performed without interruption to the host. Then, at a defined time, the host is interrupted to indicate the receipt and direct storage of the data.

Automatically converting a synchronous data transfer to an asynchronous data transfer. Data to be transferred from a sender to a receiver is initiated using a synchronous data transfer protocol. Responsive to a determination that the data is to be sent asynchronously, the data transfer is automatically converted from the synchronous data transfer to the asynchronous data transfer.

A method and system are disclosed for network adaptor optimization and interrupt reduction. The method may also build an outbound buffer list based on outgoing data and add the outgoing data to an outbound buffer queue. Furthermore, the method may set a buffer state from an empty state to a primed state to indicate that the outgoing data is prepared for transmitting and signal a network adaptor with a notification signal.

A method, system and computer program product for managing at least two physical links. A TCP/IP stack configures a first interface with attributes. The TCP/IP stack activates the first interface. The TCP/IP stack detects a channel path identifier (CHPID). The TCP/IP stack creates a second interface. The TCP/IP stack associates the second interface with the first interface. The first interface and the second interface are logically linked to exchange traffic corresponding to a single internet protocol address. The TCP/IP stack configures the second interface with at least one attribute. The TCP/IP stack activates the second interface. The two physical links may rely on two different physical link types.
