Description
Currently, we only have a single parameter to specify the source/destination tag of a message and the source/destination stream_id. This means, that tag and stream_id have to match for every call.
However, the stream_id may also be used in applications to identify different user kernels. Forcing a mapping to a tag artificially reduces the number of valid tags for a message. Also, the tag range is larger than the stream_id range, which may lead to undefined behaviour in some cases.
Possible solutions could be:
- Use the stream_id that is sent by the user kernel with the data and forward it to the remote.
- Allow to specify a separate stream_id in
recv
andstream_put
calls to allow the specification of the destination user kernel if the data is coming from a buffer.
