Abstract

Embodiments of the present invention provide a method of simulating a memory-based communication protocol for testing a simulated device. The method includes storing data in known locations of a host data buffer, where the host data buffer is implemented in a shared memory space, executing instructions of a first program to store a command in the shared memory space using a data structure including an index, an ID, and a memory location, executing instructions of a second program to read the command from the host data buffer, access the data in the shared memory space to perform an operation defined by the ID using the data, where a location of the data is indicated by the index, and send a completion indicator to the first program after the operation is complete.
