Zusammenfassung:Disclosed are ticketed flow control mechanisms in a processing system with one or more masters and one or more slaves. In an aspect, a targeted slave receives a request from a requesting master. If the targeted slave is unavailable to service the request, a ticket for the request is provided to the requesting master. As resources in the targeted slave become available, messages are broadcasted for the requesting master to update the ticket value. When the ticket value has been updated to a final value, the requesting master may re-transmit the request. 公开了在具有一个或多个主机和一个或多个从机的处理系统中的出票流控制机制。在一个方面中,目标从机从请求主机接收请求。如果所述目标从机不可用于服务于所述请求,则用于所述请求的票证被提供给所述请求主机。当所述目标从机中的资源变得可用时,消息针对所述请求主机被广播以更新所述票证值。当所述票证值已经被更新到最终值时,所述请求主机可以重传所述请求。
