Methods for enabling direct memory access (DMA) capable devices for remote DMA (RDMA) usage and devices thereof

A non-transitory machine readable medium having stored thereon instructions for enabling direct memory access (DMA) capable devices for remote DMA (RDMA) comprising machine executable code which when executed by at least one machine causes the machine to:

• insert a first network message into a first location of a remote memory region of a computing device via DMA, wherein the remote memory region is defined in an anchor record retrieved from a shared memory of the computing device;
• synchronize, via DMA, a local head pointer with a remote head pointer stored by the computing device, wherein the local and remote head pointers correspond to the first location;
• and
• send, via DMA, a notification message to the computing device indicating that the network message has been transferred following receipt of a DMA completion message.

A first computing device, comprising:

• a memory containing machine readable medium comprising machine executable code having stored thereon instructions for enabling direct memory access (DMA) capable devices for remote DMA (RDMA);
• and
• a processor coupled to the memory, the processor configured to execute the machine executable code to cause the processor to:
• insert a first network message into a first location of a remote memory region of a second computing device via DMA, wherein the remote memory region is defined in an anchor record retrieved from a shared memory of the second computing device;
• synchronize, via DMA, a local head pointer with a remote head pointer stored by the second computing device, wherein the local and remote head pointers correspond to the first location;
• and
• send, via DMA, a notification message to the second computing device indicating that the network message has been transferred following receipt of a DMA completion message.
