Abstract

A system on a chip comprising: a first communication controller; at least one second communication controller operably coupled to the first communication controller; at least one processing core operably coupled to the first communication controller and arranged to support software running on a first partition and a second partition; and a virtual machine monitor located between the first and second partitions, and the at least one processing core and arranged to support communications there between. The first communication controller is arranged to: generate or receive at least one data frame; and communicate the at least one data frame to the at least one second communication controller; such that the at least one second communication controller is capable of routing the at least one data frame to the second partition bypassing the virtual machine monitor.
