Abstract
Apparatuses and methods for command and response descriptors handling are provided. In an example, a method for descriptor handling can include instantiating a command descriptor of a command regarding a packet at a first layer of a protocol stack by a microcontroller of a node. The method can also include passing a command pointer to the command descriptor to integrated circuits of the node from the microcontroller of the node. The method can further include looking up, by the integrated circuits, the command descriptor. The method can additionally include processing the command by the integrated circuits.
