Abstract
An apparatus, program product, and method utilize a memory access interrupt to effect a reset of a processor in a multi-processor environment. Specifically, a source processor is permitted to initiate a reset of a target processor simply by generating both a reset request and a memory access interrupt for the target processor. The target processor is then specifically configured to detect the presence of a pending reset request during handing of the memory access interrupt, such that the target processor will perform a reset operation responsive to detection of such a request.
