Abstract
A circuit provides for processing and routing peer-to-peer (P2P) traffic. A bus request queue store a data request received from a first peer device. A decoder compares an address portion of the data request against an address map to determine whether the data request is directed to either a second peer device or a local memory. A bus interface unit, in response to the data request being directed to the second peer device, 1) generates a memory access request from the bus request and 2) transmits the memory access request toward the second peer device via a bus. A memory controller, in response to the data request being directed to a local memory, accesses the local memory to perform a memory access operation based on the data request.
