Abstract: We present a user-level message interface that provides high performance and very low processor overhead. In this system, messages are launched from within the user's general register file, and received in a hardware queue mapped to a general register. A message handler is started within the latency of a jump instruction upon arrival of the first message word, up to 18\Theta faster than conventional interruptdriven interfaces. These tightly-integrated mechanisms feature end-to-end latencies as ... (Update)
