Claim Text:
1. A system for optimizing remote direct memory accesses (RDMA), the system comprising: a first computing device; and a second computing device disposed in signal communication with the first computing device, the first and second computing devices being respectively configured to exchange RDMA credentials during a setup of a communication link between the first and second computing devices by the second computing device issuing a link request to the first computing device and the first computing device issuing a link response to the second computing device in response to the link request with the link response comprising one of a first indication that an align RDMA write option (ARW) is unsupported by the first computing device and a second indication that the ARW is supported by the first computing device for a predefined cache size, and the exchanged RDMA credentials comprising cache line size information of the first computing device by which a cache aligned RDMA write operation as adjusted by the second computing device to include a trailing pad is executable on a cache of the first computing device in accordance with the cache line size information by the second computing device and comprises: a definition of an RDMA write operation start address resulting from a rounding up of a cached aligned target start address by the second computing device; a transmission of a first portion of RDMA write operation data and a second portion of the RDMA write operation data with metadata in a single RDMA write operation by the second computing device; and a transmission of a first portion of RDMA write operation data in a first RDMA write operation by the second computing device and a second portion of the RDMA write operation data in a second RDMA write operation by the second computing device.
