Abstract: A method and system that prepares a task for being swapped out from processor utilization that is executing on a computer with multiple processors that each support multiple streams. The task has one or more teams of threads, where each team represents threads executing on a single processor. The task designates, for each stream that is executing a thread, one stream as a team master stream and one stream as a task master stream. For each team master stream, the task notifies the operating system that the team is ready to be swapped out when each other thread of the team has saved its state and has quit its stream. Finally, for the task master stream, the task notifies the operating system that the task is ready to be swapped when it has saved its state and each other team has notified that it is ready to be swapped out.

Abstract: A method and system in a multithreaded processor for processing events without interrupt notifications. In one aspect of the present invention, an operating system creates a thread to execute on a stream of the processor. During execution of the thread, the thread executes a loop that determines whether an event has occurred and, in response to determining whether an event has occurred, assigns a different thread to process the event so that multiple events can be processed in parallel and so that interrupts are not needed to signal that the event has occurred. Another aspect of the present invention provides a method and system for processing asynchronously occurring events without interrupt notifications. To achieve this processing, a first thread is executed to generate a notification that the event has occurred upon receipt of the asynchronously occurring event.
