It may be useful to piggyback a small amount of immediate data (e.g., 4 bytes) with signal(), similar to imm_data in InfiniBand write requests. This could eliminate the need for a separate memory read when communicating small metadata alongside synchronization.
Potential implementation options include:
Sending the immediate data together with the signal.
Leveraging imm_data for IB connections.
This issue serves as a backlog item for future evaluation.
