Abstract
A system for implementing non-standard input/output (I/O) adapters in a standardized I/O architecture, comprising an I/O hub communicatively coupled to an I/O bus and a plurality of I/O adapters at I/O adapter addresses, the I/O hub including logic for implementing a method comprising receiving requests from the plurality of I/O adapters, storing the I/O adapter addresses of a requester along with their corresponding target recipient addresses and operation codes, receiving a response from a responder, the response indicating that a request has been completed, determining that the response is in a format other than a format supported by the I/O bus, transforming the response into the format supported by the I/O bus, locating a stored I/O adapter address having a corresponding target recipient address that matches the responder address and a corresponding operation code that matches the responder operation code, and transmitting the response to the stored I/O adapter address.
