QNIC-based, fully blocking circuit switching #24

Open rdviii opened 4 years ago

rdviii commented 4 years ago

Simplest form: first message processed sets a flag that the QNIC is busy. Issue: how do we make sure we don't get conflicting reservations at the two ends of the link? Allow a request to sit unprocessed until the connection that first got the link finishes. How do we do that? Can we set an event?

Thinking about this, can't just wait passively, we might deadlock. When a request fails to allocate a resource, we have to tear down the entire set of reservations so far, then sleep for some random period of time, then try again.
