Usage Information
Field Description
Source QID /Tx Process Source Service Identifier
Destination QID/Rx Process Destination Service Identifier
Cur Len Current number of messages enqueued
High Mark Highest number of packets in the queue at any time
#of to / Timeout Timeout count
#of Retr /Retries Number of retransmissions
#msg Sent/Msg Sent/ Number of messages sent
#msg Ackd/Ack Rcvd Number of messages acknowledged
Retr /Available Retra Number of retries left
Total/ Max Retra Number of retries allowed

Important Points:

  • The SWP provides flow control-based reliable communication between the sending and receiving software tasks.
  • A sending task enqueues messages into the SWP queue3 for a receiving task and waits for an acknowledgement.
  • If no response is received within a defined period of time, the SWP timeout mechanism resubmits the message at the head of the FIFO queue.
  • After retrying a defined number of times, the SWP-2-NOMORETIMEOUT timeout message is generated.
  • In the example, a retry (Retries) value of zero indicates that the SWP mechanism reached the maximum number of retransmissions without an acknowledgement.
