Abstract
An apparatus and method for restreaming data that has been queued in a bus bridging device. Data received via a first bus is stored in a first queue. A first portion of the data is output from the first queue onto a second bus while a second portion of the data remains in the first queue. In response to another data value being transferred from the first bus to the second bus before the second portion of the data is output to the second bus, the second portion of the data in the first queue is invalidated.
