In one embodiment, a processing node includes a plurality of processor cores and a reconfigurable interconnect. The processing node also includes a controller configured to schedule transactions received from each processor core. The interconnect may be coupled to convey between a first processor core and the controller, transactions that each include a first corresponding indicator that indicates the source of the transaction. The interconnect may also be coupled to convey transactions between a second processor core and the controller, transactions that each include a second corresponding indicator that indicates the source of the transaction. When operating in a first mode, the interconnect is configurable to cause the first indicator to indicate that the corresponding transactions were conveyed from the second processor core and to cause the second indicator to indicate that the corresponding transactions were conveyed from the first processor core.
