Abstract
An information handling system includes a processor and a hardware device. The hardware device includes a first engine to provide a first operation on data, and a second engine to provide a second operation on data. The processor provides a command to the hardware device. The command directs the first engine to perform the first operation on first data to create second data based upon the performance of the first operation on the first data, and directs the second engine to perform the second operation on the second data to create third data based upon the performance of the second operation on the second data in response to a completion signal. The hardware device is configured to provide the completion signal to the second engine when the performance of the first operation on the first data is completed.
