The discussion started from PR #366.
Would it be useful if we piggyback a few bytes (e.g., 4) of immediate data upon a signal()
? This could be thought as a similar feature with imm_data
in an ibverbs write request. We need discussion on the use cases.
If we need that, while PR #366 implements this by leveraging the semaphore flag, a better way would be just sending additional bytes with the flag. For IB connections, we can leverage imm_data
.
